All night I've been awake with you on my mind
I've made a big mistake to leave you behind
You know it's hard to sleep on a bed of nails
I know that I was wrong, you knew it all along

I was a fool, nothing better to do
Than fail again and blame it on you
Sometimes I don't know how I'll ever get you back
So much I need to say but you're so far away

Ooh, just wanna get closer
Ooh, closer to you
Ooh, just wanna get closer, closer
That's all I wanted to do

So when I wake up I'll count every move
I need to make to get back to you
Who knows if time can heal all that's gone before
But in your eyes once more, lights on a distant shore

Ooh, just wanna get closer
Ooh, closer to you
Ooh, just wanna get closer, closer
That's all I wanted to do

They say there's a northern light shining out there
They say there's a happy life, who can tell me where
They say that love can fly like smoke in the air
But I don't care what they say when you're so far away
Ooh, just wanna get closer
Ooh, closer to you
Ooh, just wanna get closer, closer
That's all I wanted to do
