You're Nearer (Live)

Lyrics：Lorenz Hart Music：Richard Rodgers

Time is a healer

But it cannot heal my heart

My mind says I've forgotten you

And then I feel my heart.

Though the miles lie between us

But your fingers touch my own

You're never far away from me

For you're too much my own.

You're nearer

Than my head is to my pillow

Nearer than the wind is to the willow.

Dearer than the rain is

To the earth below

Precious as the sun to

The things that grow.

You're nearer than the ivy to the wall is

Nearer than the Winter to the Fall is

Leave me

But when you're away

You'll know you're nearer

For I love you so.
