《Closer To You》歌词

[00:00:00] Closer To You - Carrie Newcomer

[00:00:13] Mssouri's tied together like a rolling rag rug

[00:00:19] Bit and pieces and necessity and love

[00:00:25] You can sense the proud and working dirt poor

[00:00:30] Clean and pressed like Sunday shirt but edge worn

[00:00:36] You think by now we'd be a little further on

[00:00:42] For all this tumbling we've been through

[00:00:48] As I'm leaving Missouri into Southern Illinois

[00:00:52] I feel like I'm finally getting closer

[00:00:56] Like I'm finally getting closer to you

[00:01:12] When women look for answer

[00:01:14] Then learn to listen and sit still

[00:01:18] Men think they've got to take some kind of stand

[00:01:24] Yet we're drawn together like magnet to magnet

[00:01:29] Spend years trying to explain again

[00:01:35] You think by now we'd be a little further on

[00:01:41] For all this tumbling we've been through

[00:01:47] I'm explain still I guess I always will be

[00:01:53] Trying to get closer

[00:01:55] Trying to get closer to you

[00:02:22] There's a photo on the table of my family and me

[00:02:28] Taken in some studio in 1963

[00:02:35] The faces are familiar but I can't tell you why

[00:02:40] Most families nod and then they sigh

[00:02:46] When I get healed I'm gonna be a healer

[00:02:52] That's just the nature of those things

[00:02:58] We don't exist in any solid form

[00:03:02] We're always moving and changing

[00:03:10] You think by now we'd be a little further on

[00:03:16] For all this tumbling we've been through

[00:03:21] I'm changing still and I guess I always will be

[00:03:27] Trying to get closer

[00:03:30] Trying to get closer to you
