Wallflowers - Closer to You lyrics

How soft a whisper can get

When you're walking through a crowded space

I hear every word being said

And I remember that everyday

I get a little bit closer to you

How long an hour can take

When you're starting into open space

When I feel I'm slipping further away

I remember that everyday

I get a little bit closer to you

These are the days

That I won't get back

I won't hear you cry

Or hear you laugh

And when it's quite

And I don't hear a thing

I can always hear you breathe

You know there's nowhere else

I've wanted to be

Than be there when you need me

I'm sorry too

But don't give up on me

And just remember that when you get asleep

I got a little bit closer to you
