Lyrics So Close Yet So Far Away - Junior Brown

So Close Yet So Far Away

We survive the storms of life in all kinds of weather
And we’re as close as two sweethearts could be
But we’re a husband and a wife who can’t be together
When there’s a thousand miles distance between you and me
Cos I need you here more than I need these tears
The more you’re gone the more I miss you every day
Until I’m holdin' you tight
There won’t be nothing right
When we’re so close yet we’re so far away
When I’m so tired of being alone
And I call you on the phone
For just a moment it’s like you’re right here with me
And the miles that we’re apart they start breakin' my heart
How far away and how much closer can two sweethearts be
Cos I need you here more than I need these tears
The more you’re gone the more I miss you every day
Until I’m holdin' you tight
There won’t be nothing right
When we’re so close yet … we’re so far away
