Closer To You
I've seen my longing shape and shift
Felt the tightening of its fist
Built some walls that came tumbling down
When woman or man came around
Brought you flowers and made you smile
Went behind fine forbidden lines
Sang a song to make someone sweet
Such darkness in human beings
I dressed up, I dressed down
Wore a fool's thorny crown
All to be
All to be
All to be
Closer to you
I held some sorrow to myself
Its weight was felt by someone else
Was without dreams, dreamt big and small
Saw little difference in it all
Tried to go slow, tried to go quick
By and by came the course of things
Keep dancin steps to this beat's beat
Such brightness in human beings
I dressed up, I dressed down
Wore a fool's thorny crown
All to be
All to be
All to be
Closer to you, closer to you
Closer to you, closer to you
Closer to you
Closer to you
Closer to you, la da da da
Closer to you, la da da da
La da da da da da da da da
Felt the tightening of its fist
Built some walls that came tumbling down
When woman or man came around
Brought you flowers and made you smile
Went behind fine forbidden lines
Sang a song to make someone sweet
Such darkness in human beings
I dressed up, I dressed down
Wore a fool's thorny crown
All to be
All to be
All to be
Closer to you
I held some sorrow to myself
Its weight was felt by someone else
Was without dreams, dreamt big and small
Saw little difference in it all
Tried to go slow, tried to go quick
By and by came the course of things
Keep dancin steps to this beat's beat
Such brightness in human beings
I dressed up, I dressed down
Wore a fool's thorny crown
All to be
All to be
All to be
Closer to you, closer to you
Closer to you, closer to you
Closer to you
Closer to you
Closer to you, la da da da
Closer to you, la da da da
La da da da da da da da da
