Close By My Heart

Thank you for the days you took me out

And listened to my ramblings

And for when I thought you were getting bored

I would catch you smiling

Sorry if it scared you

Wish you could stay a little longer

But I know there’s no place in your heart right now

For this feeling growing stronger

I’ll meet you somewhere along the way

We were something good

And I’ll keep you in my memory

Close by my heart

Just in case you want to knock on it

There’s nothing to hold on

I will drag no aching

I’ll see you when I least expect to

That’s kind of our thing

Thank you for welcoming me

When all my fears would enter in

And for when I thought my tears would fall

You would just distract me

Sorry if it scared you

Wish you could stay a little longer

But I know there’s no place in your heart right now

For this feeling growing stronger

I’ll meet you somewhere along the way

We were something good

And I’ll keep you in my memory

Close by my heart

Just in case you want to knock on it

There’s nothing to hold on

I will drag no aching

I’ll see you when I least expect to

That’s kind of our thing

We would never call us something

What we were was good enough

And I remember laying ‘round and laughing

‘Bout the silliest stuff

And I remember turning ‘round and catching your eyes on mine

I would’ve ignored my blushing

If I knew it’d be the last time

Sorry if it scared you

Wish you could stay a little longer

But I know there’s no place in your heart right now

For this feeling growing stronger

I’ll meet you somewhere along the way

We were something good

And I’ll keep you in my memory

Close by my heart

Just in case you want to knock on it

There’s nothing to hold on

I will drag no aching

I’ll see you when I least expect to

That’s kind of our thing

We were something good

And I’ll keep you in my memory

Close by my heart

Just in case you want to knock on it

There’s nothing to hold on

I will drag no aching

I’ll see you when I least expect to

That’s kind of our thing

The only proof of us being together

Is that now we’re both falling apart
