SO CLOSE YET SO FAR

She searches hopelessly for a new love
She smiles at me but dies inside
Trying to find a way out
Out of the darkness and into the light

So close yet so far 

She awakens in me a wave of desire
She captures me in her eyes
And then she tells me loves a lie
And leaves me cold and blind

So close yet so far

She prays every night to feel numb
She said memories won’t let her sleep at night
She said her life’s an empty stage
Life’s a circus we’re all clowns

She searches hopelessly for a new loveShe smiles at me but dies insideTrying to find a way outOut of the darkness and into the light So close yet so far  She awakens in me a wave of desireShe captures me in her eyesAnd then she tells me loves a lieAnd leaves me cold and blind…
