You were one sad man, in the chair Watching his children play, watching his wife go gray You were one that man, I couldn't look in the eye But now I'm just your size, it's even harder to try You say you're happy and there's no turning back Where did he go the man I knew? Do you want to be, closer to me? Do you want to be, Closer to me? You keep your hands laid on my chest At an arms distance, your heart never listens I can't believe you said you won't accept a child of your own And his own... I can't believe you hung up that phone You say you're happy and there's no turning back Where did he go the man I knew? My hands are clapping "bravo", you're on track Is my father coming back home soon? Do you want to be, closer to me? Do you want to be, Closer to me? You say you're happy and there's no turning back Where did he go the man I knew? My hands are clapping "bravo", you're on track Is my father coming back home soon? Do you want to be, closer to me? Do you want to be, Closer to me? Do you want to be, closer to me? Do you want to be, Closer to me?
