"Closer" lyrics

"Closer"

Every day, I get a little closer, dear
Will you love me, darling, when I get there?
I'll need sunshine, I'll need rest
Pour us whiskey, water, kiss

"Remember me," she said, smiling
"Write my name somewhere safe."
Touch and taste
Fades with space
I'll never be who you'll dream

Every day, I try a little harder, dear
But those things you do, I don't wanna hear
You'll have yours, I'll have mine
No one guilty, no one right

"Remember me," she said, smiling
"Write my name somewhere safe."
Touch and taste
Fades with space
I'll never be who you'll dream

You'll have yours, I'll have mine
No one guilty tonight
You'll have yours, I'll have mine
No one guilty tonight
You'll have yours, I'll have mine
No one guilty tonight

Every day, I get a little closer, dear
Gonna drive fast all night 'til I get there
Not much time we can waste
Nothing pretty left to save
