The Closer I Get

(Alyson Weeces)
2007

The closer I get

The closer I get to you, the further away I feel.
The closer I get to this love the less I know what is real

I’m defending you to everyone
and defending the fact that I’ve not come undone
And I don’t expect them to understand this at all
Cuz I know you better than they could ever know

Chorus:
If loving you means knowing that you’ll never be mine
and if loving you means accepting that it’s just not the time
then I’ll be loving you for a really long time

The words that fall from your lips
the more I hear these promises the less I can hold my defense

I see through the walls and I see through the fears
and I know that you see all of my tears
and I’m still holding on

Chorus

We are here. We are less.
We are more than what we ever thought we’d be here for.

Defending you to everyone
and defending the fact that I’ve not come undone
And I don’t expect you to understand this at all
Cuz I love you more than you could ever know

Chorus
