Damnwells, The - Closer Than We Are lyrics

rate me

Trying to catch Christmas eve with a 737

Via St. Louis with on a threadbare heart

I'm trying hard to believe in ghosts and heaven

And wheels that turn with a broken part

Stealing kisses over the phone

Making wishes on a bottle of Côtes du Rhône

Some of these days are longer than

The lonely distance that's between them

Let's be closer than we are to Jupiter or Spain

There are 2 seats at the bar for Mr. and Mrs. My Last Name

We are simpler than the stars that our eyes cannot contain

Let's be closer than we are

Try to build galaxies

Out of winks and shivers that you give me when you call my name

Try to write symphonies

With a hand that quivers in the storm of your elusive rain

Leaving lovers on their own

Crawling through burning cities to get back home

Some of these days are longer than

The lonely distance that's between them

Let's be closer than we are to Jupiter or Spain

There are 2 seats at the bar for Mr. and Mrs. My Last Name

We are simpler than the stars that our eyes cannot contain

Let's be closer than we are

Let's be all that will remain

Some of these days are longer than

The lonely distance that's between them

Let's be closer than we are to Jupiter or Spain

There are 2 seats at the bar for Mr. and Mrs. My Last Name

We are simpler than the stars that our eyes cannot contain

Let's be closer than we are

Let's be all that will remain

Let's be closer than we are
