The Mastersons - Closer to You lyrics

I found a letter in my dresser from a couple years back 
It was written from my dad, he nearly broke his back 
He spent his life working a job he hated
 It could have left him bitter but he never got jaded 

I tried to hold him close but he pulled away 
I'd give anything to see him once again today 
He died too young, it nearly broke my heart 
I'd give anything to take it right back to the start 

Chorus 
I had a perfect dream of your beautiful face
 I woke too soon and you were lost in space 
I spent half the day crying at a sky so blue
 And I'd give anything to be closer to you
 Yeah, I'd give anything to be closer to you 

Well, I never saw a hearse pulling a U-Haul trailer 
Possessions don't mean nothin' to a long lost sailor
 Ashes to ashes and dust to dust 
If you don't keep searchin' then you're sure gonna rust 




Chorus 




I'm in the dark
 So close, so far 




I dropped a letter to my lover in the mail today 
I'll be damned if I'm gonna make the same mistakes
 Will you join me on a journey for the rocky road
 I promise you I'll help you bear the heavy load




 Chorus
