close to paradise

Singer:patrick watson

we're walking close to paradise

and more than other days

yes

i'm walking closer and closer

but not close enough

yes

i'm walking closer and closer

but not close enough

waking morning sunshine burns

'cause you fall from where your felt you are

and you're running faster and faster

oh

but the days they ain't slowing down

and don't you

don't you wanna be there

there right now

yes

i'm walking closer and closer

but not close enough

yes

i'm walking closer and closer

to paradise

we'll promise that

to paradise

we'll promise that

hey lovely people down there

let's fill that hole up in the sky

don't be afraid to care

i'm sure you'll find yourself there

hey lovely people down there

let's fill that hole up in the sky

don't be afraid to care

i'm sure you'll find yourself there

i'm sure you'll find yourself there

when you're down

hold on

i'm sure you'll find yourself there

when you're down

hold on

i'm sure you'll find yourself there

close

close to paradise
