Lyrics: Libbie Schrader. Other. So Close.


You sit here beside me
At the corner of my eye
If you move just a little
We'll be touching that line

All that you've given
All that you've done
Could still be forgiven
If you were found out

And you bring me here so close
To the single thing that I want the most
But it's just a ghost
It won't be given

You play me so sweet
Does she know that you come to me
While her light is burning late for you?

The words that you've spoken
Only to me
Still haven't broken
That promise that you keep

But you bring me here so close
To the single thing that I want the most
And it's just a ghost
It won't be given

You play me so sweet
Does she know that you come to me
While her light is burning late for you?
You play me so sweet
And I start to forget that she's
Got her light burning late for you

So you lead me here this far
But you'll be recognized now for what you are
Close, but still too far
For what I'm wishing

Oh, you play me so sweet
Does she know that you come to me
While her light is burning late for you?
You play me oh so sweet
I don't know what you want from me
But I won't wait, it's too late for you
