Closer I Get

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Eric Rachmany] People say it just doesn't matter, but The closer I get, I'm giving in I can't escape, damn what a shame [Verse 2: Eric Rachmany] Listen to me just for a minute I can be quick, no gimmick I got a plan, we should live it [Verse 3: Eric Rachmany] The closer I get, I can't relate This ain't our place, let us go far, far away Find a new home, rules of our own You and me both are the same Try to be strong, baby come on now, come on Lie after lie, so many times When I'm tryin' to find a peace of mind [Chorus: Eric Rachmany] I've got love for you when the time gets rough When all the stress adds up And when you say, "I've had enough" Got love for you when the time gets rough When all the stress adds up And when you say, "I've had enough" [Verse 4: Eric Rachmany] Whatever happened to the good times? We should create for ourselves, not rely on They'll never get a hold of me Simple, you see, simplicity Yeah, the closer I get, I can't relate I can't escape all the pain How they lie all the time When I'm tryin' to find a peace of mind [Chorus: Eric Rachmany] I've got love for you when the time gets rough When all the stress adds up And when you say, "I've had enough" Got love for you when the time gets rough When all the stress adds up And when you say, "I've had enough" [Bridge: Eric Rachmany] Yes I found my own way out I'm goin' all the way Until the people all find out They're goin' all the way down [Harmonica Solo/Outro: John Popper]
