Lyrics

So Close

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.

So far

There was not a second thought

No heart

Ever got close enough

You are

Watching as I am caught

In a moment off-gaurd

So close

I can nearly taste it

Suppose

This is that one promised love

God knows

All that I've wasted now

Never letting it start

Now all my resistance

I feel it slip away

Now all of the distance

Ever less with every day by day

So far

There was no connection

No spark

Out of which a fire grows

I start

In your direction I'm

Ever so close

Now all my resistance

I feel it slip away

Now all of the distance

Ever less with every day by day

So far, I have never been

So close
