[Verse 1]
I am closer to believing than I ever was before
On the crest of this elation, must I crash upon the shore?
And with the driftwood of acquaintance light the fire to love once more
I am wind blown, I am times
[Verse 2]
To be closer to believing, to be just a breath away
On the death of inspiration, I would buy back yesterday
But there's no crueler illusion, there's no sharper coin to pay
As I reach out, it slips away
[Verse 3]
From the opium of custom to the ledges of extremes
Don't believe it 'til you've held it, life is seldom what it seems
Lay your heart upon the table and in the shuffling of dreams
Remember who on Earth you are
[Refrain]
I need me
You need you
We want us
[Verse 4]
But of course you know I love you or what else am I here for?
Only you, not face-to-face, but side-by-side forevermore
And I need to be here with you, for without you, what am I?
Just another fool out searching for some heaven in the sky
Take me closer to believing, take me forward lead me on
Through collision and confusion while there's life beneath the sun
You are the reason I continue, so near for so long
So close, yet so far away
I am closer to believing than I ever was before
On the crest of this elation, must I crash upon the shore?
And with the driftwood of acquaintance light the fire to love once more
I am wind blown, I am times
[Verse 2]
To be closer to believing, to be just a breath away
On the death of inspiration, I would buy back yesterday
But there's no crueler illusion, there's no sharper coin to pay
As I reach out, it slips away
[Verse 3]
From the opium of custom to the ledges of extremes
Don't believe it 'til you've held it, life is seldom what it seems
Lay your heart upon the table and in the shuffling of dreams
Remember who on Earth you are
[Refrain]
I need me
You need you
We want us
[Verse 4]
But of course you know I love you or what else am I here for?
Only you, not face-to-face, but side-by-side forevermore
And I need to be here with you, for without you, what am I?
Just another fool out searching for some heaven in the sky
Take me closer to believing, take me forward lead me on
Through collision and confusion while there's life beneath the sun
You are the reason I continue, so near for so long
So close, yet so far away
