So Close

Bonnie Raitt

So far
There was not a second thought
No heart
Ever got close enough
You are
Watching as I am caught
In a moment off-guard

So close
I can nearly taste it
Suppose
This is that one promised love
God knows
All that I've wasted now
Never letting it start

Now all my resistance
I feel it slip away
Now all of the distance
Ever less with every day by day

So far
There was no connection
No spark
Out of which a fire grows
I start
In your direction I'm
Ever so close

Now all my resistance
I feel it slip away
Now all of the distance
Ever less with every day by day

So far, I have never been
So close
