Aly's Song (So Close, So Far)

So just know I take your picture where I go

And every night you call my phone, and you're feeling so alone

And you wonder where it went

All the words that I had said, and were they ever meant?

And it just ain't working when it's so uncertain

I always walk the edge but always come back home

Promised I'd call

But I always come back home again

Leave me where you found me

I'm always missing something

You know it's catching up

You know it's not enough, every time I come back home again

Someone's always asking, "Where you been?"

So just know I don't want to stay, I just want to go

This is all the time for me, so just know

I don't want to please, I just want to leave

It's the air I breathe till it kills me

And it's reoccurring

And it leaves you hurting

And it just ain't working when it's so uncertain

I promised I'd call

But I always come back home again

Leave me where you found me

I'm always missing something

You know it's catching up

You know it's not enough, every time I come back home again

Someone's always asking, "Where you been?"

Counting states like counting stars

We both know how it ends

Chances for memories pass us like cars

It's always catching up

Counting states like counting stars

We both know how it ends

So close, yet so far

It's always catching up

It's always catching up

Counting states like counting stars

Chances for memories pass us like cars

So close, yet so far

So close, yet so far

So close, so close

So close

And every time I come back home again

Someone's always asking, "Where you been?"
