Close To You lyrics by Kate Wolf

Close To You lyrics
Kate Wolf

I like the way you smile.
It reminds me of a happy child
It makes me feel a little less alone
I miss you when you're gone
The hours, they stretch on and on
Like water dripping slowly on a stone

You're such a mystery
The way you look at me
With that light that shines from some place I can't go
It could take you by surprise
When you realized
That you loved me though you've never told me so
You know I want to say so many things to you today
But you've got me feeling like I'm flying blind

I think if you were here,
The words would ring crystal clear
From this heart that learning how to speak its mind
You fight for truth with love
You're an iron hand in a velvet glove
It's the kind of strength that makes a gentle man
But I'm a child of the wind
I've been blown away, but I'm back again
I just don't know if you really understand

Sunlight moves across the floor
There's a soft breeze through the open door
A sleepy cat laying on the window sill
On this lazy afternoon, like honey on a silver spoon,
The memory of your smile is with me still
Don't tell me that it's wrong to say
I love you with a song

When the words won't come, I've seen you do it too
This road winds along
One day, we'll be gone
But I'll have this song to bring me close to you
I'll have this song to bring me close to you
