Close Enough

  • I get 700 channels on my TV
    I got more things that any man needs
    I've got friends to call when I wanna get buzzed
    But I can't get you close enough
    There ain't a place that's too far away
    Cause I could buy a ticket and leave today
    But I can't fix what I messed up
    If I can't get you close enough

    So many people in the world to love
    Crazy how my heart only wants one
    And I can't shake how good it was
    Back when we couldn't get close enough

    Yeah, my idea of love was wrong
    It all made sense when you were gone
    I thought I gave you so much
    But all you really wanted was close enough

    So many people in the world to love
    Crazy how my heart only wants one
    And I can't shake how good it was
    Back when we couldn't get close enough

    All you ever wanted was for me to be there
    Look in my eyes, know that I care
    I could never tell you what you needed to hear
    When you were right here

    I can't fix what I messed up
    If I can't get you close enough Writer/s: AARON JAMES BABCOCK, JASON MICHAEL CARROLL, NATE SALLIE, PETER CHRISTIAN GOOD
