As I stood and said goodbye With a lump in my throat Couldn't bear the hurt inside As I found your foolish note While I understand your pain I could see what you've to gain By leaving me alone Why won't you come back home But your love whispers through my life And I can't fake the pain inside If you'd only let me get close to you Oh girl, I'd feel the world's at my feet And I'd know that all my dreams have come true For me and for you Just wait and believe, you'll see I want to get close to you Close to you So close to you Close to you Well the road was long And my tears have all dried up Because the distance we shared Was an enemy of love I got my bag on my back And my coat in my hand I'm gonna take this distance Unto another man's land But your love whispers through my life And I can't fake the pain inside If you'd only let me get close to you Oh girl, I'd feel the world's at my feet And I'd know that all my dreams have come true For me and for you Just wait and believe, you'll see I want to get close to you Close to you So close to you Close to you I want to get close to you Close to you So close to you Close to you So close to you Close to you So close to you Close to you
