Ben Lee - Close as I've Come lyrics

I slipped into a house

to escape my enemies,

and opened a door to another world

of lovers and whores

but I loved you more

than any of them

and ever before.

Look how close I've come

how close I've come

how close I've come

how close I've come

how close I've come I'm far away.

The universe is brought back

from the brink of destruction

every time that you smile.

But I can see things clearer

it's all smoke in the mirrors

Yeah, you broke my fucking heart but I still

want you

Look how close i've come

how close I've come

how close I've come

how close I've come

how close I've come I'm far away.

Look how close I've come I'm far away.

One can only guess

what would happen if

I got all my questions answered.

Then we'd know for sure

who's got the quickest draw,

who's laying dead

and who's above the law.

Look how close I've come

how close I've come

how close I've come

how close I've come

how close I've come I'm far away.

Look how close I've come I'm far away.
