Name: Closer
Duration: P00H04M56S
Description: Closer was birthed from an utterly dark time in my life. My wife and I were separating and nothing made sense. This song was a final expression of a love lost. Yet, somehow, some way, we made it through. Now, this song has taken on a whole new meaning. These words are now acting as anchors through the desolate world of addiction.

Closer was birthed from an utterly dark time in my life. My wife and I were separating and nothing made sense. This song was a final expression of a love lost.

lyrics

Disappear
My heart surrounded in fear
I need to know that you’re near
That I am never alone

Becoming clear
You’re heart is beating so dear
I need to know that your here
So I am never alone

And all these things
That would seem to come between
Should we rise
Should we fall
Know my heart will never leave
Should we fall forever
Forever we’ll be

I need you closer
Stay here
Forever beside me
Always now
I need you closer to me

Lay aside
All that leaves us terrified
At least we know that we tried
So we are never alone
