Closer To You

brandi carlile
it's hard to let the miles pass me by
yellow lines that blend together in my eyes
and when the seasons change again then i will too
~~~~~~
i'm staring out at endless rows of green
there are miles of hay like i have never seen
just when you think you've had enough and
your dreams come true
i just want to be closer to you
my mind wanders through all that i've been hiding from
i tried not to let you down
now i wonder if i've been doin' something wrong
help me get my feet back on the ground...
~~~~~~
tomorrow i'll be lying under you
with a heart of gold and arms to fall into
i know that there might come a day
where my life is through
but i just want to be closer to you
my mind wanders through all that i've been hiding from
i tried not to let you down
now i wonder if i've been doin' something wrong
help me get my feet back on the ground...
~~~~~~
someday we might learn to tell the truth
we might even find the fountains of our youth
we all needed something real we all need proof
i just want to be closer to you
i only want to be closer to you
