The closer I am
|
To your faded hand
|
The cold inch of air
|
That threatens my bed
|
Where you used to stand
|
|
The ghost at my arm
|
The kiss on my neck
|
So strange this house that I'm in
|
It's not what I meant by those things I said
|
|
The frost on the glass
|
The wheels on the road
|
The soft white machine
|
That holds you between
|
The coming and going
|
|
The closer I am
|
The closer I get
|
The further you drift from this place
|
While I cling to your face in my head
|
|
The closer I am
|
To your threaded hand
|
The cold slice of air
|
That holds by my bed
|
Where you used to stand
|
|
The closer I am
|
|
