Closer To Believing

C       G       C       G

C
I am closer to believing, Than I ever was before
             Bb                      Gm
On the crest of this elation, Must I crash upon the shore
C
And with the driftwood of acquaintance
C
Light the fire to love once more
     Gm                C
I am wind blown...I am times
C
To be closer to believing,  To be just a breath away
             Bb
On the death of inspiration, I would buy back yesterday
               C
But there's no crueler illusion
C
There's no sharper coin to pay
      Gm                   C
As I reach out... It slips away

                          G
From the opium of custom, To the ledges of extremes
      F                              Dm
Don't believe it till you've held it, Life is seldom what it seems
             C
But lay your heart upon the table
C
And in the shuffling of dreams
     Bb                   C
Remember who on earth you are
  Bb       C   Dm                C
I need me, You need you, We want us

C
But of course you know I love you, Or what else am I here for
     Bb
Only you not face to face, But side by side for evermore
C
And I need to be here with you, For without you what am I
             Bb                           Gm
Just another fool out searching, For some heaven in the sky
        C               G
Take me closer to believing, Take me forward lead me on
        C
Through collision and confusion
               F               C
While there's life beneath the sun
C
You are the reason I continue, So near for so long
      Bb             C
So close yet so far away

  Bb       C   Bb        Dm      C
I need me, You need you, We want us to live forever
F                         Fm
So don't let the curtain fall
        C                 F              Fm
Measure after measure, Of writing on the wall
                                     C
That burns so brightly, It blinds us all

  Bb       C   Bb       Dm       C
I need me, You need you, We want us to be together
       F          Fm
On Sundays in the rain
C                    F                    Fm
Closer than forever, Against or with the grain
                           C
To ride the storms of love again

C
So be closer to believing, Though your world is torn apart
      Bb
For a moment changes all things, And to end is but to start
               C
And if your journey's unrewarded
C
May your God lift up your heart
          Gm
You are windblown
            C
But you are mine
