Rosanne Cash - Closer Than I Appear lyrics

Lock all the doors an' turn out the lights. Work this thing through till we get it right. But if I seem angry an' cold, Or I don't speak at all, It's just that old fear, 'Cause baby, I'm closer than I appear. An' here are the facts, as much as I know. We've got to turn back if we can't let it go. You know your heart an' your mind. An' I'm just three steps behind, But I feel those tears, 'Cause baby, I'm closer than I appear. Yeah, baby, I'm closer than I appear. 'Cause somewhere inside, I'm reachin' out for you. Somewhere inside, we both know the truth. But I learned lots of rules 'bout what a man's made of, An' I got to rethink what I know about love. Hey, I'm willin' to change. If I still seem the same, well it's just them old fears. An', baby, I'm closer than I appear. If I was born to stand here, an' give you nothing but love, To fill up these years, Then, baby, I'm closer than I appear. Yeah, baby, I'm closer than I appear. Well, come closer, an' I'll come closer. Well, come closer, closer than I appear.
