Close Enough

In my tradition of being a tireless promoter of new music and independent artists, I am posting the lyrics to a friends first single from his debut CD, because...well see for yourself.

I have kept my distance.
Independent. On my own.
A superficial witness
with love I'd touch and go.

Could it be
for my own protection
I have only gone halfway?
Could it be
my fear of rejection
drove your love away?

I say don't get too close
protect yourself from love.
It's hard to stay afloat
when you try and you try and you try.
I say don't get too close
protect yourself from love.
Yet, I find it hurts the most
when you try and you try and you try
and you're not close enough.

Crowded room of people
I pretend to know.
I'd rather be a stranger.
I choose to walk alone.

Could it be living on the outside
is much more than I can take?
Honestly,I'd reach for affection
but it only slips away.

I say don't get too close
protect yourself from love.
It's hard to stay afloat
when you try and you try and you try.
I say don't get too close
protect yourself from love.
Yet, I find it hurts the most
when you try and you try and you try
and you're not close enough.

Yeah, I wanna be
close enough.
