Closer to Life

Who am I to feel so strong In your long lonely light? When I know you see me clear Feel your pulse against my skin Feel the hope that holds me in; A hope you’ll leave me here That’s both beneath and above Both of us Only tonight, with you lay still beside me Do I recognise the truth in front of my eyes For all I leave behind; For all the distance I’ve covered; For all the wreckages I have climbed Reaching for love Never rеaching enough; For all of my gravity; For all your becalming little wеight; Only tonight, I realise You’re closer to life than I am You show me the sides of pain Wherever you rise, I will remain You know that the night contains the deepest sounds If you listen enough
