about

That delightful time when you're feeling good about somebody and getting the vibe that it just might happen.

lyrics

CLOSER
You’re a planet turning in outer space
If I wait patiently I’ll see your beautiful face
Don’t know why I can feel so sure
But your gravity keeps pulling me closer, closer

Been watching you make your way across the sky
Predicting our orbits are bound to collide
Holding my breath, keeping my composure
Wondering if you hear the rush bringing us closer

Sparks will fly when you fall through my atmosphere
But I’ll be standing by to hold you when you get here

Seems like light years since I felt your steady beam
But every night you grow brighter in my dreams
Opening my heart to full exposure
Time to begin, you’re coming in closer
