Close To You Lyrics

Close To You lyrics

watching daybreak, chase shadows from you, as you cling to sleep
there`s a moment in my world, when I don`t want to breathe
just want to be silently close to you 

I see myself as a hand me down, all broken in
I see myself tattered and torn, I can be brand new
when I`m close to you 

Don`t ever let anyone ever tell me what it is they think I need
Because they`ve never seen the way you look at me
As if there`s something in me that nobody else can see
I keep one hand in the filth of my life, one hand I keep for you
You bring me up, you bring me out, you bring me in
I want to be, I want to be close to you 

when I`m close to you
you never see things the way I did
instead I find I ain`t satisfied with the man, the man I think I am 

anything you want, anything you need
I want to be the one you come to, I want to be the one you run to
I want to be the only one to, I want to be close to you 

You`ve been too far away

[Lyrics to "Close to You" (new version 1999/2000)]

watching daybreak, chase shadows from you, as you cling to sleep
there`s a moment in my world, when I don`t want to breathe
just want to be quietly close to you 

I keep one hand in the filth of my life, one hand I keep for you
when restless ones tear at my sleeve
you`re the comfort I believe in
I want to be, I want to be close to you 

I see myself as a hand me down, all broken in
and I see myself, I`m tattered and torn, I can be brand new
when I`m close to you
I never see things the way I did
instead I find I ain`t satisfied with this man, the man I think I am 

you know it`s true
anything you want (yeah), anything you need
I want to be the one you come to, I want to be the one you run to
I want to be the only one too, I want to be close to you
