This Close Lyrics - Singles - Chynna Phillips

Time wasn't on our side 

Our lives pulls us away 

And I face the lonley night 

Love put us to the test 

We were touching less and less 

In a world of emptiness 

Oh is the answer here 

Right here in your arms 

Baby hold me near and 

Keep our love from harm 

Chorus: 

This close 

We've never been this close before 

We almost walked away 

This close 

We've never been this close, I pray 

That every step I take 

Gets closer to you 

That's when there's time and distance 

Something gets through 

Till we're this close 

We've never been this close 

I waited by the phone 

The candles burned for you 

But you never did come home 

The night ain't your closest friend 

In a cold and empty bed 

With the words we left unsaid 

Oh I know the answer's here 

Right here in my arms 

Baby never fear 

My love will keep you warm 

(chorus) 

I held my breath for you 

Nevertheless I knew inside 

I'd be with you 

Maybe it was pride 

I've heard in time love grows 

But I never dreamed we'd be 

This close 

(chorus) 

I've never been 

This close to you
