Close To You Lyrics by Ellis Delaney

Right On Time

2010

[Verse 1]
Let's pretend we’re taller than the highest part of Everest
Giants with a lion's roar but lighter than a bird
And we build upon our shoulders
Buildings high into the sky
And we look out of our windows
Wishing we could fly
[Chorus]
I wanna be close to you
To know how close we are
I wanna be fearless in the face of love
And not be afraid of fallin' apart
[Verse 2]
Each day there’s a sunrise
Beauty I can barely see
If I saw it all my heart would fill so full
I couldn't breathe
[Chorus]
I wanna be close to you
To know how close we are
But I cover up my heart, afraid I am weakening
I have ways to escape when things get hard
[Bridge]
Here we are
This is the way it is
The sun, the rain, how things are always
Changing
[Verse 3]
Let's pretend we are at the end of our lives
Here
And all our troubles, it seems so big
Have all disappeared
When we are deep in the shadows
Bringing light into the dark
I will reach for you 'til the end of me
When I can't tell us apart
[Chorus]
'Cause I wanna be close to you
To know how close we are
I wanna be fearless in the face of love
And not be afraid of fallin'
I'm fallin’ apart
