So Close

Where's that smile, hope you didn't lose it
Put it on again and wear it once with me
Sure I know, there's been some time between us
But I had to stand back some. To get the room to see
It's all right now, hold on tight now
I'll be staying, I won't go
Don't you cry now, we can try now
Just take some distance to know
We were so close we almost didn't make it
So close but it looks like we're alright
So close I almost couldn't see you
So close but it looks like we're alright
We're all right
What a day remember it was even raining
When I said goodbye, I didn't wanna leave
Just one look, you could see my eyes were asking
And I could feel yours pulling at my sleeve
It's all right now, hold on tight now
I'll be staying, I won't go
Don't you cry now, we can try now
Just take some distance to know
We were so close we almost didn't make it
So close but it looks like we're alright
So close I almost couldn't see you
So close but it looks like we're alright
We're all right
