《Closer and Closer Apart》歌词

[00:00:00] Closer And Closer Apart - Mary Chapin Carpenter

[00:00:12] Tell me the truth don't ask me to lie

[00:00:19] These are the things we say

[00:00:24] You don't need proof and and I'm not going to try

[00:00:31] But I think we have lost our way

[00:00:36] I don't own the sun and I can't raise the moon

[00:00:42] So now as the darkness falls

[00:00:48] Love's a hard one and over too soon

[00:00:55] Another cruel landing caused

[00:01:01] What I can do is turn now to you

[00:01:07] Holding my hand to my heart

[00:01:14] All that I know is I'm watching us grow

[00:01:22] Closer and closer apart

[00:01:30] And now all the kings horses and all the kings men

[00:01:37] Wait for their clarion call

[00:01:43] Pride hears its voice and fear wins again

[00:01:49] And there's nothing to break our fall

[00:01:56] What I can do is turn now to you

[00:02:03] Holding my hand to my heart

[00:02:08] All that I know is I'm watching us grow

[00:02:16] Closer and closer apart

[00:02:23] Closer and closer apart

[00:02:29] Over and over and over again

[00:02:35] The world only spends one way

[00:02:41] The past is a distant flicker by now

[00:02:48] And a lesson for another day

[00:02:54] Now my sad little boat floats on out to sea

[00:03:02] And you're almost out of sight

[00:03:08] I'll remember you please don't forget me

[00:03:13] I whisper with all my mind

[00:03:20] All I can do is turn now to you

[00:03:27] Holding my hand to my heart

[00:03:34] All that I know is I'm watching us grow

[00:03:42] All I can do is turn back to you

[00:03:49] And wave with one hand on my heart

[00:03:55] Of that I know this is so hard to go
