So Close

John McLaughlin


You're in my arms and all the world is calm
The music playing on for only two
So close together
And when I'm with you
So close
To feeling alive

A life goes by
Romantic dreams must die
So I bid mine goodbye and never knew
So close was waiting
Waiting here with you
And now

Forever I know

All that I want is
To hold you so close
So close to reaching that famous happy ending
Almost believing
This one's not pretend and
Now you're beside me and look how far we've come
So far
We are
So close
(...)
Oh, how could I face the faceless days
If I should lose you now
We're so close
To reaching that famous happy endin
Almost believing
This one's not pretend
Let's go on dreaming
Though we know we are
So close
So close
And still so far
