As close as the sea is to the seashore
The tide still rises twice a day
That’s just the ocean’s way of getting CLOSER
CLOSER

As close as today is to tomorrow
At midnight they can fin’lly touch
Cuz every minute brings them that much CLOSER
CLOSER

So on this silent night
I call your name and suddenly
All time and space between us disappear

I see your face in firelight
I hold you close in memory
And even though I know you’re gone, I know you’re here

As close as the glow is to the ember
You’ve always been a part of me
Now living in my heart you’re even CLOSER
CLOSER

INTERLUDE

I see your face in firelight
I hold you close in memory
And even though I know you’re gone, I know you’re here

As sure as there’s snowfall in December
Your love lives on in everything
Summer, winter, fall or spring
Every thought of you will bring us CLOSER

The distance may be large or small
Someday I know that we will all be CLOSER
