Closer Than You Think Lyrics by Hayden Forbes

2018

[Intro]
Can’t even do an intro
Haha
This song’s gonna be something I’ll tell ya that

[Verse 1]
This song is heartfelt and I’ll try to keep it simple
The love that y’all dealt was that left-handed signal
Cause I, love you guys, so many, different times
I wasn’t, in my prime but now there, is a sign
Ever since 2008, Jordan gave me a beginning
Kept wishing, blowing out the candles while everyone was singing
My friends, you’re a gift to this world, go around it while you can
And if alarms sound, call me down, arrival is the plan
Valarie what you found in me was undoubtedly the best thing
While Brock, when I first met you, you were a little threatening
But as I got to know you, who you were, took a U-turn
Those late night car chats were the best thing that I had to earn
Collin and Veronica, my Chandler and my Monica
Became my second family but no need to adopt ya
Can you hear me, sincerely, I love you all dearly
And clearly if you ever need me, from boredom or severely
Well

[Chorus 1]
Listen here Jordan, listen here Lauren
No matter where you are I am closer than you think
To all of my friends, the happiness won’t end
And no matter where you are I am closer than you think

[Interlude 1]
I’m not joking
You’re all my Pham
And family if the most important thing
I take it very seriously
And if I haven’t named you yet, don’t worry

[Verse 2]
7th grade, my best days, always straight A’s for my test grades
But an empty spot in my heart was for someone named LJ
She’s artistic, the next hit, for the radio, I wish it
My sister from another mister, who saved my life when it was twisted
Her dedication made sense, even when things got out of control
Compared to me in binary, she's 111110
You know bro? And Jordan, never doubt what you’re doin’
You’re one of my favorite drummers and you’re dope at producin’
Alex, Clay, and Sterling, I love the funny things you send me
And Mary, don’t forget to take your best care of Benny
Amazing friends I’ve got so many, best wishes by the plenty
If I’m ever famous you guys I'll never be forgetting
Now tell me about your goals, your dreams, your aspirations
I could be there to help you lay down your foundation
To everyone on the album, you're the truest believe that
I hope you all someday achieve your goals, I'd love to see that

[Interlude 2]
Hannah
Andrew
Tiffany
Aldo
Paige
Muffin Time!
Haha
And so many more to name
It’s almost too much man
But

[Chorus 1]
Listen here Jordan, listen here Lauren
No matter where you are I am closer than you think
To all of my friends, the happiness won’t end
And no matter where you are I am closer than you think

[Chorus 2]
Listen here Collin, listen here Austin
No matter where you are I am closer than you think
To all of my friends, the happiness won’t end
And no matter where you are I am closer than you think

[Chorus 3]
Listen here Caitlin, listen here Clayton
No matter where you are I am closer than you think
To all of my friends, the happiness won’t end
And no matter where you are I am closer than you think

[Outro]
So there it is
I love you guys, Merry Christmas
Happy Holidays
Oh man
No matter where you are I am closer than...
