Story Behind the Song
Song about longing to be with the one you want, but it doesn't happen. What a story, cast of thousands.
Lyrics
Close to You
Words and Music by
Scott Rogers (ASCAP)
I was stuck alone, but I wasn't the only one
Spent my days in darkness, hiding from the sun
With every thought of you, I saw it was clearer
With every wish I knew, you still weren't here
-Chorus-
All I wanted to be was
close to you
All I want to be is
close to you
I was lost inside away from what really mattered
All the hours of being clueless to what just made you sadder
With every breath in silence, I couldn't say it any louder
With everyone around me, I was the first to holler
(Chorus)
If I could get you alone
I'm sure you'd see
Our lives aren't changed
and you can be with me
I was stuck alone, facing the truth from you
Spending my days gone, running from the zoo
With every thought of you, I was sinking deeper
With everything I do, you still weren't any nearer
(Chorus)
