Closer

 Intro:

 (0:07)

 Verse 1: (0:20)

  It was the rocks you liked, So much you'd throw them

  Down into the river's darkness,  Down from where the trains go flying

  Your legs hung out
 Verse 2: (0:36)

  Into the air, we'll keep on kicking

  We're moving but it's never going, When we go it's like we're faking

  Two palms, no sound
 Chorus: (0:50)

  Closer and closer, The beam's width that's between us

  Gets just a little leaner, We ought to fail to see it

       And if I go    to the left         And if you move to the right

    So that we've hit and spilled      We've turned it off in the night
 (1:32)

 Verse 3: (1:46)

  Between the banks that roll, The glass hidden motion

  Above we go on without knowing, The pines control the wild sarcasm

  To hold us up
 Verse 4: (2:01)

  And time was held, Well worth the holding

  Waste when you try to save,  Save it and it ends up wasted

  You know these words
 Chorus: (2:15)

  Closer and closer, The beam's width that's between us

  Gets just a little leaner, We ought to fail to see it

       And if I go    to the left         And if you move to the right

    So that we've hit and spilled      We've turned it off in the night
 (2:58) [ play this twice ]

 Chorus 2: (3:26)

  Closer and closer, The beam's width that's between us

  Gets just a little leaner, We ought to fail to see it

  Answer we entered, The trains won't ride beside us

  But water moves beneath us, And takes away the sense of hearing it all
 Outro: (3:54)
