Song Closer to Me
Artist Dar Williams
Album Many Great Companions

Lyrics

You can leave this house, leave this town
Leave it all to me or you'll never leave the ground
Look at that tiny screen's too small for you
I think you should learn to dream just like the dreamers do
What can you do with a day?
What will you wake up and see?
The farther you get
The closer to me
Am I the habit you're too tired to break?
I want you to love me with every step you take
What can you do with a day?
What will you wake up and see?
The farther you get
The closer to me
Taj Mahal,
Cameroon, back in time, to the moon
Frozen lake, cypress trees,
Florida's missing keys
El Dorado,
Spain or bust
Eiffel Tower,
ParisJust find your way in
You can leave this house, leave this town
All that's left to chart
Is nothing less than your own heart
What can you do with a day?
What will you wake up and see?
The farther you get
The closer to me
Down the river, down the road,
Little Rock,
TokyoDusty trail,
Flagstaff, in a faded photograph
Thunderstorm,
Golden Sands,
Cape of Horn,
PakistanSuriname,
Highway One,
Chinatown, smoking gun
Golden Gate,
Baltic Sea,
Painted Desert,
LaramieTaj
Mahal, Cameroon, back in time, to the moon
Frozen lake, cypress trees,
Florida's missing keys
El Dorado,
Spain or bust,
Eiffel Tower,
ParisJust find your way in
