Lyrics

Lean A little Closer


Don't you wish you could rest upon the road, when you're riding sixteen hours and you're tired wet and cold.

And in the end when you call the game, the cold it cannot touch you cause you're playing in the rain With a childs heart and an ancient soul, theres no one left to teach you, what you already know

Chorus
Won't you look a little nearer, a little closer at yourself, 'cause when the sun goes down,in the mirror, see the shadow of the form you thought you held, and you will remember this

Lean a little closer, lean a little closer, and I'll whisper you a kiss, Lean a little closer


You try to love and still remember hate, don't you know the hour of your choice is getting late

And when you're friendly with the longest game, the world can never hurt you, 'cause you're dancing with her pain. With a child's eyes and an ancient smile, comfort won't entice you for you've gone to the wild


Chorus
Won't you look a little nearer, a little closer at at this dream, 'cause when the sun goes down,in the mirror, things are not the way they always used to seem, and you will remember this

Lean a little closer, lean a little closer, and I'll whisper you a word that will awaken you from this, Lean a little closer, lean a little closer, and I'll whisper you a kiss lean a little closer,
