Ray Charles - You're Nearer lyrics

[Verse] Time is a healer But it cannot heal my heart My mind says I've forgotten you And then I feel my heart Though the miles lie between us But your fingers touch my own You're never far away from me For you're too much my own You're nearer Than my head is to my pillow Nearer than the wind is to the willow Dearer than the rain is To the earth below Precious as the sun to The things that grow You're nearer than the ivy to the wall is Nearer than the Winter to the Fall is [Outro] Leave me But when you're away You'll know you're nearer For I love you so
