close

I could never tell you
What keeps me up at night
Better that you never know
What's really on my mind
Cause all of this is new to me
But you've been here before
It's not like I can even ask
If you want it to be more

So if this is as close as I can get I'll take it every time
If it means that you'll stay by my side
I'll put it to the back of my mind
While it's always easier said than done
I promise I'll give it a try
Cause if this is as close as I can get I'll take it every time

I still tell you things I'm thinking 'bout
Cause I trust that you won't tell
When it's me and you alone at times
Feels like I know you so well
And now I'm good at hiding it
I don't think you'd ever know
Cause I don't wanna ruin this
I don't think I could cope

So if this is as close as I can get I'll take it every time
If it means that you'll stay by my side
I'll put it to the back of my mind
While it's always easier said than done
I promise I'll give it a try
Cause if this is as close as I can get I'll take it every time

But the closer we get
The more I know I'll hurt when I try to forget
Pretend I never let you inside of my head
And that it didn't frighten me
But the closer we get
The more I know I'll hurt when I try to forget
Pretend I never let you inside of my head
And that it didn't frighten me

So if this is as close as I can get then maybe the time's not right
But If it means that you'll stay by my side
I'll put it to the back of my mind
While it's always easier said than done
I promise I'll give it a try
Cause if this is as close as I can get I'll take it every time
