So Close And Yet So Far

So Close And Yet So Far

Agent Orange
(album: Virtually Indestructible)

let me remind you all again
that there is never any room
for any doubt
i feel it in my heart, i shout it out
and if i decide to change my ways
it´s not because i´ve found the latest craze
it´s just that i´ve got more to lose this time

you know that you can count on one thing
i would never let you down
as crazy as this world may seem
the thing that keeps it spinning `round
is always there
so close and yet so far

and you can believe it´s true
a reason behind everything i do
a twist that makes it different every time
there are those who say "it´s all been done"
there´s nothing stopping us
from having fun
and that´s why i´ll be coming `round again

you know that you can count on one thing
i would never let you down
as crazy as this world may seem
the thing that keeps it spinning `round
is always there
so close and yet so far...

...away - but it gets a little closer every day
and i will hold it in my hand before i die
you know there isn´t any way that we can lose
and you don´t have to be confused
by hollow words that never mean a thing
when tragic things keep happening
to everyone around you
you don´t have to be the same
this is the song that begs to set you free
a sparkle in the night
when we come face to face
don´t close your eyes
don´t ever turn away

because the only way you´ll ever know
is if you ever really try
so find out for yourself
then you won´t ever have to wonder why
as crazy as this world may seem
the thing that keeps it spinning `round
is you because you´re always there
so close and yet so far

always spinning around
you´re always there - so close and yet so far
always there so far
