Closest I Get

What if I wait and you don't show

If I left you half just to keep me whole

What if I held my breath so long

Would you notice the silence had lasted so long

What if the closest I get to the moment is now

I have seen love come and go

I watched it pass with my heart held close

There's no easy way to know

If I'm looking back or I'm getting close

What if the closest I get to the moment is now

Love it has no guarantees

Which muse will lay its hands on me

We said the words we knocked on wood

And I'm still here waiting to see what could be.

What if the closest I get to the moment is now?
