Getting Closer - Yellow Days

I woke up this morning

And to my surprise

As the day was dawning

There’s nothing on my mind

Yeah, it’s been a long time

Yeah, it’s been a while

Since I got out of bed

Oh, with a smile, ooh

I’m getting closer, oh

I’m getting closer, yeah

And as walk down the street

It seems that every person that I meet

Seems happy inside

Smiling as they walk by

I hear the radio playing tunes

And for once it’s got a groove

And the sunshine is up

I can hear people laughing loud

Oh, yeah it’s been a long time

Oh, yeah it’s been a while

Since I spent the whole day

Oh, with a smile

I’m getting closer, oh

I’m getting closer, yeah

With the music that I make

I make sure they know my name

And by the time that I’m gone

There’ll be no more songs to be sung

I guess music’s my best friend

I mean it never ever lets me down

Oh, sweet melody

It’s the glorious sound

Music brings us together

Makes us all one

And I know load it forever

There’ll be songs being sung, ooh

I’m getting closer, oh

I’m getting closer, yeah

Now life may be tough, children

But don’t give up now, it’s only just begun

Ooh, ah

Ooh, ah
