Closer Lyrics by Jack Savoretti

Singing to Strangers (Special Edition)

2019

Far away from home again
There's nothing I can do to stop this pain
I've taken everything there is to take
But I can't make it go away

I've got photographs of memories
Everything I need is far away from me
I've got photographs of memories
Everyone I need is far away from me

Can you help me get closer
When I think about the ones I love
I feel the stars above get closer
And it may seem I'm far away
But it doesn't stop me wishing I was closer

Not to feel so low
I'm gonna [?] when I feel like home
Is so far away, so far away

At night I call you wonderful
You voice reminds me how much I feel alone
There's nothing I can say to you
To make you understand these things I do

I've got photographs of memories
Everything I need is far away from me
I've got photographs of memories
Everyone I need is far away from me

Can you help me get closer
When I think about the ones I love
I feel the stars above get closer
And it may seem I'm far away
But it doesn't stop me wishing I was closer

Wishing I was closer
Wishing I was closer
Wishing I was closer

I get high not to feel so low
I'm gonna [?] when I feel like home
Is so far away, so far away
[x4]

Wishing I was closer
Wishing I was closer
