All night I've been awake You on my mind I made a big mistake To leave you behind You know it's hard to sleep On a bed of nails I know that I was wrong You knew it all along I was a fool, nothing better to do Than fail again and blame it on you Sometimes I don't know how I'll ever get you back There's so much I need to say But you're so far away Ooh, just wanna get closer Ooh, closer to you Ooh, just wanna get closer, closer That's all I wanted to do So when I wake up I'll count every move I need to make To get back to you Who knows if time can heal All that's gone before But in your eyes once more Lights on a distant shore Ooh, just wanna get closer Ooh, closer to you Ooh, just wanna get closer, closer That's all I wanted to do They say there's a northern light Shining out there They say there's a happy life Who can tell me where They say that love can fly Like smoke in the air I don't care what they say When you're so far away Ooh, just wanna get closer Ooh, closer to you Ooh, just wanna get closer, closer That's all I wanted to do Just to be close to you
