[Verse 1]

You're in my arms, and all the world is gone

The music playing on for only two

So close together, and when I'm with you

So close to feeling alive

[Verse 2]

A life goes by, romantic dreams must die

So I bid mine goodbye and never knew

So close was waiting, waiting here with you

And now, forever, I know

All that I want is to hold you so close

[Chorus]

So close to reaching that famous happy ending

Almost believing this one's not pretend

Now you're beside me, and look how far we've come

So far, we are so close

[Bridge]

Oh, how could I face the faceless days

If I should lose you now?

[Chorus]

We're so close to reaching that famous happy ending

Almost believing this one's not pretend

Let's go on dreaming, though we know we are

So close, so close, and still so far
