Close - Jane Monheit

What’s the one thing I haven’t told a soul ever

When’s the last time I lost myself control, never

Sitting next to you in this almost empty room

With the end of the evening so near

Might just be the only time

I can look into your eyes

And whisper.

whisper

Close.

Close enough to touch

So close

Almost close enough

I hate to keep you waiting

But love has never been so close

When’s the first time I ever truely fell, someday

What’s the one wish, I’ve been wishing for us both, one day

One day I’ll wake to find, my heart has done it’s time

And everything I held inside is out

And like a long and answered prayer

I’m hoping you’ll be there

Just be on the shadows and my dance

Close.

Close enough to touch

So close

Almost close enough

I hate to keep you waiting

But love has never been so close to you

Close to me

A single road within our reach

Close.

Close enough to touch

So close

Almost close enough

I hate to keep you waiting

But love has never been so close
