It takes me away, as if it's only in my mind
The same old set of feeling happen faster still
Friend I hardly knew you though I tried so long ago
I've been thinking it over or at least I'm trying to
Remembering that Saturday when we wrecked our shoes
We were covered in love, or maybe the lack there of
I wish my memory would serve me but it's more like mythology
Or ancient history of stories that I made up
Listen to me when I tell you that you have no control
It's nothing to feel sad about it takes the best of all of us
And it takes me away, as if it's only in my mind
The same old set of feeling happen faster still
Well we thought we knew it all, like we had it in our hands
But we are younger than that now even when ten years have passed
As I look into your eyes, I don't know you any better
Are we covered in love? covered in love...
It takes me away, as if it's only in my mind
The same old set of feeling happen faster still
And it takes me away, as if it's only in my mind
The same old set of feeling happen faster still (faster still)
Covered in love, in our love, it's getting faster everyday
It's growing faster still
**Intro to "Closer:"
In a dream you were there, it was real
I could almost see the wrinkles in your skin, images so vivid still
Perhaps the next best thing to being there is knowing where you are
Though I cannot cross the chasm I believe you're moving on
God, if you can hear me, take this lump out of my throat.
It seems I only laugh in photographs of melting snow and video but oh
This is my favorite time of year. At least it used to be when she was here
