Carpenter, Mary Chapin - Closer And Closer Apart Lyrics
Tell me the truth
Don't ask me to lie
These are the things we say
You don't need proof and I'm not going to try
But I think we have lost our way
You don't own the sun and I can't raise the moon
So now as the darkness falls
Love is so hard won then over too soon
And another cruel ending calls
All I can do is turn now to you
Holding my hand to my heart
All that I know is I'm watching us grow
Closer and closer apart
Wait for their clarion call
Pride hears its voices, and fear wins again
And there's nothing to break our fall
Over and over and over again
The world only spins one way
The past is a distant flicker by now
And a lesson for another day
Now, my sad little boat floats on ou to sea
And you're almost out of sight
I'll remember you
Please don't forget me
I whisper with all my might
All I can do is turn now to you
Holding my hand to my heart
All that I know is I'm watching us grow...
All I can do is turn back to you
And wave with one hand on my heart
All that I know is it's so hard to go...

Heard it on In Plain Site this morning...Could wait to find it...
I had to say good-bye to the love of my life...thanks for writing the words for me.
Love this.. It was played on "In Plain Sight" and I recognized MC2 right away! Mary Mc Cormack could be Mc2's sister from another mister- lol
That was where I found it, too, and bought the album. And, yes, Mary could be McCormack's sister.
Heard on in plain sight and was moved by the words.
Beautiful♥.~*♔ *´¨`*•.¸♥♥¸.•*´¨(✿◠‿◠)❀♫❤
