Brett Perkins - Closer lyrics

If only love Can mend my heart Why do I ache when we're apart? And if only love Can make me strong Tell me how I'm to get along? So long without you So long without you Walking down the street In a seconds' beat I can shift from emptiness To bursting at the seams Someone pa**es by Sad, familiar eyes And I'm spilling on your answering machine Wish we were closer Need to be closer If only love Can mend my heart Why do I ache when we're apart? And if only love Can make me strong Tell me how I'm to get along? So long without you So long without you What if you were here? Would it change a thing? We might drift for hours through familiar wanderings Then needing time along Time to know our own Caught up in this puzzlebox The paradox of need Need to be closer Need to be closer If only love Can mend my heart Why do I ache when we're apart? And if only love Can make me strong Tell me how I'm to get along? So long without you
