So Close

They met on the dance floor in the old high school gym

He fell like a rock, she kinda liked him

And his heart beat like thunder as they moved cross the floor

When the music was over, she slipped out of his arms

And out of the door, yes, you did

Yeah, a man loves a woman, but he can't understand

Why she's sad when she stares at the ring on her hand

Or she sits in some club where the long shadows fall

Drop a coin in the jukebox not the phone on the wall

So close, yet so far away

So close, yet so far away

We believe in tomorrow maybe more than today

We're so close, so close, yet so far away

Some people think if you really believe

That's what you need to solve all the mysteries

Yeah, I know someone who just heads for the sun

She says, I don't wanna be wise, I just wanna stay young

So close, yet so far away

So close, yet so far away

We believe in tomorrow, but we're stuck in today

Baby, we're so close, so close, so far away

There's a restless look in your eye tonight

There's a secret hurt in my heart

So close and the dream that pulls us together, girl

Is the dream that's gonna tear us, tear us apart

There's a restless look in your eye tonight

Are you looking for somewhere, end up here

We gotta fight, to keep it together, girl

For the dream that keeps us

So close, yet so far away

So close, yet so far away

Who would've thought, girl, that's we'd end up this way

Given so close, so close, so far away

We're living in a dream world

But we live in the day, girl

Just you and me, baby

Baby, side by, side by, side by, side by, side by side

So close, so far away

So close, so far away

So close
