I'll have to be As brave as you With no star to guide us Blazing above; And no moonshiner's river To carry us through And no way to speak When there aren't words enough Fair enough, You asked me for nothing Fair enough All you told me was true, I called down the flood And I'm falling forever But I was this close to you, This close to you It rained for a week And I kept my head down Trying to think what You reminded me of: A fire that hat ravaged An Ohio town, And spooked me at noon With my headlights still on Fair enough, You asked me for nothing Fair enough All you told me was true, I called down the flood
And I'm falling forever But I was this close to you, This close to you Well sometime at night I pretended to be sleeping Just to hear what it is That you say When you talk to yourself And the darkness is keeping The hateful morning A goodnight away If I was much younger I might just forget it If love was the habit of Some borrowed room; But it's all that I have And I'm doomed to regret it If I can't forgive Myself or you soon. Fair enough, You asked me for nothing Fair enough All you told me was true, I called down the flood And I'm falling forever But I was this close to you, This close to you
