So Close

So Close - Daryl Hall And John Oates

They met on the dance floor in the old high school gym

He fell like a rock she kinda liked him

And his heart beat like thunder as they moved cross the floor

When the music was over she slipped out of his arms

And out of the door yes you did

Yeah a man loves a woman but he can't understand

Why she's sad when she stares at the ring on her hand

Or she sits in some club where the long shadows fall

Drop a coin in the jukebox not the phone on the wall

So close yet so far away

So close yet so far away

We believe in tomorrow maybe more than today

We're so close so close yet so far away

Some people think if you really believe

That's what you need to solve all the mysteries

Yeah I know someone who just heads for the sun

(She says)

"I don't wanna be wise I just wanna stay young"

So close yet so far away

So close yet so far away

We believe in tomorrow but we stuck in today

Baby we're so close so close so far away

There's a restless look in your eye tonight

There's a secret hurt in my heart

(So close)

And the dream that pulls us together girl

Is a dream that's gonna tear us tear us apart

There's a restless look in your eye tonight

Are you looking for somewhere end up here

(I see you looking in my eye)

We gotta fight to keep it together girl

For the dreams that keeps us

So close yet so far away

So close yet so far away

The who would've thought girl that we end up this way

Given so close so close so far away

(So close so far away)

We're livin' in a dream world

(So close so far away)

But we live in today girl

(So close so far away)

Just you and me baby

(So close so far away)

Baby side by side by side by

(So close so far away)

Side by side by side by side

(So close so far away)

So close so far away

So close
