lyrics

Closer To You

Not entirely sure where I am today
Woke up under different sheets again
Have to ask somebody
When I go down for coffee
Live with a little mystery ’till then

It’s red and brown and grey out the window
Could be any city anywhere
And I’m staring at the telephone
But I guess I’d best leave you alone
’Til I figure out what time it is back there

’Cos every moment I’m away takes me closer
Sometimes that’s all that gets me through
And every single step I take is another step
It’s another step closer to you

Had a mismatched conversation with the waitress
Think she said the name of the hotel
but I’m not sure
When I tried to clarify
She said, “On Mercy Street” and I
Didn’t have it in me to pursue it any more

But every moment I’m away takes me closer
Sometimes that’s all that gets me through
And every single step I take is another step
It’s another step closer to you

[Guitar]

Well every moment I’m away takes me closer
Sometimes that’s all that gets me through
And every single step I take is another step
It’s another step closer

Well every moment I’m away takes me closer
Every moment
And every single step I take is another step
It’s another step closer to you

Closer
Closer to you
Closer

Ferg's unapologetic pop songs encompass all the important things: love, loss, mistakes, surprises and people’s astonishing capacity to miscommunicate. In these songs and stories you'll find some extraordinary snapshots from an ordinary life. ... more
