Geoff Downes - The Closer I Get to You lyrics

I can't begin to make no sense of it all Maybe I don't try enough But there is nothing that I wouldn't do I would beg, I would plead for our love I want to know if you're just tired of me Or have we just grown apart? Our existence is just floating at sea Cut adrift from the people we are There is no answer, no question, no lie I'm losing count of days pa**ing by It's like cancer, it's consuming my soul Nothing there, nothing left, should I die You can't see, what you do to me, if you did Then you might even try I cannot breathe, no way to proceed And I ain't got what I need to get by The closer I get to you The further you push me away I don't know what to do I just don't know what to say The closer I get to you The further you push me away I don't know what to do I just don't know what to say I walk the street 'cos I don't wanna go home I know that something's so wrong I guess I just can't face the truth of it all And admit it's been dead for so long If I could then I would sit with you now To talk, and try to make sense And summon every ounce of courage I have But I can't, for the fear is immense Don't even need to know a reason for this Just leave it all in the past Or I will tumble down into the abyss And this breath that I take is my last You can't see, what you do to me, if you did Then you might even try I cannot breathe, no way to proceed And I ain't got what I need to get by The closer I get to you The further you push me away I don't know what to do I just don't know what to say The closer I get to you The further you push me away I don't know what to do I just don't know what to say The closer I get to you The further you push me away I don't know what to do I just don't know what to say
