Closer To You

Jackie Greene


you can listen to the money
you can listen to your friends 
but if you listen to your heartbeat 
you might never go home again
you got 1000 miles, and 10 000 more to go
there's blood on the wheel and you feel 
like everything's outta control

well maybe i'm just the foolish kind
keepin' record of what i've left behind
yet i find there aint nothing i can do
im getting closer to you

theres trouble down here
theres trouble down there
but everyday that goes by 
i swear its harder and harder to care
i fight the good fight i do the best i can
but man sometimes its impossible to 
stand where you think you should stand

so hey mister give me something strong
sometimes i feel so good and then that feelings gone but it wont be long before ill be coming through im getting closer to you

some people say never
some people say now
some people get together and do 
what some people dont allow
some people like to laugh at the people 
who cry and my how 
everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody's
ready to die

Now nevermind my state of mind
neon signs across the borderline
closing time; and i think its time i flew
im getting closer to you
