Lyrics
Drivin' fast with the windows down
Four speed Chevy truck, outskirts of town.
You sitting right next to me,
Blond hair blowing round.
Parking at the lake that night
Bullfrogs croaking in the full moon light
Everything was just so right...and we were
Close, so clo-oo-ose...
Sky high on a feeling
With all our senses reeling,
Close, so clo-oo-ose...
Without a thought of leaving,
We kissed instead of breathing.
Close enough to wear each other's skin...
That's how close...we were then.
(female)
Fate conspired with random chance
Tried to interrupt...true romance
Still we've found a way to dance...
A thousand miles apart.
Ever since you went away
I visualize your blue eyes every day,
Keep my sanity that way...and we're still
Close, so clo-oo-ose...
Sky high on a feeling,
With all our senses reeling,
Close, so clo-oo-ose...
Dismissin' pain from leaving,
We dream kiss 'stead of breathin'
Prayin' soon we'll wear each other's skin.
Just as close as we were...
I've kept each letter that you sent
Fought back tears that came and went
God knows...I'll never be content
Til I hold you...
(together)
Close, so clo-oo-ose...
Sky high on a feeling,
With all our senses reeling,
Close, so clo-oo-ose...
Without a thought of leaving,
We'll kiss instead of breathing.
Close enough to wear each other's skin
We can be that way again...
We can be that close again.
So close...
