Closer Lyrics by The Call

Let the Day Begin

0

Why with you is it always all or nothing
What seemed important then now turns to dust
God I know it hurts to be this lonely
I know it's hard to live life out of trust
But night cannot reveal the coming morning
And morning never knows how the day will end
But me without you, I'm left here wanting
Lost inside my own life once again

Closer, closer
I'm feeling my way in the cold light of day
Closer, closer
I'm feeling my way, nearer each day

Why does it always feel like I'm running backwards
There's always just one more mile to go
And all this time we've struggled just like lovers
A struggle that no words could ever show
You must have sensed I was growing reckless
You must have known my pain was very real

Closer, closer
I'm pulling the weight of a million years
Closer, closer
I find myself out on this old road again
Closer, closer
You've lived this life and you know what it's like
Closer, closer
You know how it feels, you know it's a fight
Oh

Why does it always hurt when you get close to me
Why do I pull away when you draw near
You know that you're my life and my love only
All my inner failings disappear
Seems to me my heart burned down again last night
Leaves me out here wandering in the cold
Somewhere in the distance you were calling me
Somewhere in the distance lies my home

Closer, closer
I'm feeling the weight of a million years
Closer, closer
I find myself out on this cold road again
Closer, closer
You've lived this life you know what it's like
Closer, closer
You know how it feels, you know its a fight
Closer, closer

Closer, closer
