Bruno Deneckere - so close lyrics

rate me

<b>so close</b> by <i>Bruno Deneckere</i><br />I sunk into Georgina's eyes

So the big guns blew

There was a life-boat on the way

They hung my clothes to dry

They're wavin' on the news

The drowned man speaks today

I got so close

I got so close

The scent of goat's leather

Lingers on my fingers

Though they scrubbed them thoroughly

And "Oh,he will do better!"

Those are words that wiggle

To a tune too smooth to me

I got so close

I got so close

I'm gonna handle the heat

Pull out the blindin' splinters

And I swear on my own name

There's blisters on my feet

My toes are cold and withered

But I will walk again

I got so close

I got so close
