Closer

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Don't you know I wish I was closer

I'd be watching over

And if you're too small to see

I'll lift you on my shoulders

If you're feeling low, I'll hold you

I wanna be there in the morning

So I'm working through the night

And I'll be smiling at you yawning

While you're rubbing those brown eyes

And if you'll ever need me, call me

I wanna make sure you're alright

I don't wanna be so far from home

You know, you're daddy's little soldier

And your mother's handsome knight

Now don't you worry about darkness

'Cause you're carrying a light

And those shadows fall when you're around

Don't you know I wish I was closer

I'd be watching over

And if you're too small to see

I'll lift on my shoulders

If you're feeling low, I'll hold you

I want you close to me like some birds want the trees

'Cause when you're close to me my worries flee from me

'Cause when I'm with you my feet don't touch the ground

Now, I'm not a king but when I'm with you I feel like I'm wearing a crown

And for you I sing, for you I sing, for you I sing

Don't you know I wish I was closer

I'd be watching over

And if you're too small to see

I'll lift on my shoulders

If you're feeling low, I'll hold you

Ooh, don't you know I wish I was closer

I'd be watching over

And if you're too small to see

I'll lift on my shoulders

If you're feeling low, I'll hold you

Don't you know I wish I was closer

I'd be watching over
