CLOSER
Summer hesitates around the corner
Rain is hangin' in the air
One of these days
When you're lonely and blue
I'll slowly but surely
Get closer to you again
When will I make it across the border
Guards patroling everywhere
One of these days
When the sky's turning blue
I'll slowly and secretly
Get closer to you again
And though my papers are in order
I'm not getting anywhere
But one of these days
When the hard times are through
With the ease of forgiveness
I'll get closer to you again
