Lyrics

[Verse 1]
How is it I feel you closer to me
Now that the world's between us?
What I wouldn't do just to get some sleep
But we're taking fire
[Verse 2]
There are some things that my mind can't do
The machine takes over
I'd kill the world to get back home to you
But I'm getting tired
[Verse 3]
If I close my eyes, maybe I'll see you there one more time
And I will give you my word, I'm so afraid you won't believe it
And if I told you all I've done, I know it'd make you cry
So I will close my eyes, and let the falling skies lay down between us
[Verse 4]
Sometimes your voice is all that I can hear
Lately it's getting quiet
It used to be so tender and near
But now it sounds miles away
Does it ever feel like this to you?
I don't know what to do
[Verse 5]
If I close my eyes, maybe I'll see you there one more time
And I will give you my word, I'm so afraid you won't believe it
And if I told you all I've done, I know it'd make you cry
So I will close my eyes, and let the falling skies lay down between us
I will close my eyes, and let the falling skies lay down, between us
