Far Too Jones - Close To You lyrics

watching daybreak, chase shadows from you, as you cling to sleep

there's a moment in my world, when I don't want to breathe

just want to be silently close to you

I see myself as a hand me down, all broken in

I see myself tattered and torn, I can be brand new

when I'm close to you

Don't ever let anyone ever tell me what it is they think I need

Because they've never seen the way you look at me

As if there's something in me that nobody else can see

I keep one hand in the filth of my life, one hand I keep for you

You bring me up, you bring me out, you bring me in

I want to be, I want to be close to you

when I'm close to you

you never see things the way I did

instead I find I ain't satisfied with the man, the man I think I am

anything you want, anything you need

I want to be the one you come to, I want to be the one you run to

I want to be the only one to, I want to be close to you

You've been too far away

[Lyrics to "Close to You" (new version 1999/2000)]

watching daybreak, chase shadows from you, as you cling to sleep

there's a moment in my world, when I don't want to breathe

just want to be quietly close to you

I keep one hand in the filth of my life, one hand I keep for you

when restless ones tear at my sleeve

you're the comfort I believe in

I want to be, I want to be close to you

I see myself as a hand me down, all broken in

and I see myself, I'm tattered and torn, I can be brand new

when I'm close to you

I never see things the way I did

instead I find I ain't satisfied with this man, the man I think I am

you know it's true

anything you want (yeah), anything you need

I want to be the one you come to, I want to be the one you run to

I want to be the only one too, I want to be close to you
