You were young, you had time on your hands And I, was a rollercoaster of the kind that needs to ride so high To dive so low All the time I had to keep you close
Now I finally know how it must of hurt To see all of the love and care only work A little while and then I'd go All the time I had to keep you close
What you feel is what you get You know there is no answer fit We broke the code so long ago I'm going to keep you ever close Just like on the day we met You pulling on me like a cigarette So like the sea holds to the shore I'm going to keep you ever close
Now the years have a way to make you forget That we're still in the same place No hurry yet The path we're on is the path we chose I'll still remember how to keep you close
Linger on, linger on in the scheme of things We are only inhabiting our own dreams They don't come true, it's the way it goes And in the meantime I will hold you close
What you feel....
So is this what they mean about moving on Is this really the end you won't stick around The one that stays, you're the one that throws Out the one that has kept you close
And is this definition of constant change A transformissionof what we hope stays the same Cold's the breeze that forever blows Warm are the hands that have kept you close
Coldness is what lays ahaed So when I see you should I just pretend The flower's cut but it still grows I'm going to keep you ever close
Just like on the day we met I'm pulling on you like a cigarette So like the sea holds to the shore I'm going to keep you ever close
