maybe we ll never be seen together at night on a crowded street i may never reach across your body and kill the light when you re asleep maybe i ll never watch you dressing or sound too familiar on the phone but i can touch your hand that s against me and take that moment home that s as close as i ll get to loving you even though there s nothing else i d rather do i can dream i can hope i can scheme but still i know that s as close as i ll get to loving you i won t be there when you need holding but i m sure that he can pull you through but i can sing this song to everybody and pretend it s not about you that s as close as i ll get to loving you even though there s nothing else i d rather do i can dream i can hope i can scheme but still i know that s as close as i ll get to loving you that s as close as i ll get to loving you even though there s nothing else i d rather do i can dream i can hope i can scheme but still i know that s as close as i ll get to loving you that s as close as i ll get to yeah that s as close as i ll get to that s as close as i ll get to loving you
