They met on the dance floor in the old high school gym,
He fell like a rock, she kinda liked him
And his heart beat like thunder, as they moved cross the floor,
When the music was over, she slipped out of his arms, and out the door

Yeah a man loves a woman, but he can't understand,
Why she's sad when she stares, at the ring on her hand
Or she sits in some club, where the long shadows fall
Drops a coin in the jukebox, not the phone on the wall

So close, yet so far away
So close, yet so far away
We believe in tomorrow, maybe more than today
Were so close, so close, yet so far away

Some people think, if you really believe,
That's what you need to solve all the mysteries
Yea I know someone, who just heads for the sun,
She says "I don't wanna be wise, I just wanna stay young"

So close, yet so far away
So close, yet so far away
We believe in tomorrow, though were stuck in today
Baby were so close, so close, yet so far away

There's a restless look in your eye tonight
There's a secret hurt in my heart
And the dream that pulls us together girl,
Is a dream, thats gonna tear us, tear us apart

There's a restless look in your eye tonight,
Oh, are you lookinfor some way out of here
We gotta fight to keep it together girl,
For the dream, that keeps us,

So close, yet so far away
So close, yet so far away
Who would of thought girl that wed end up this way
Gettingso close, so close,
So far away

Were living in a dream world
Yet were livintoday girl
Just you and me baby
Gotta try, gotta try, gotta try, gotta try, gotta try, gotta try, gotta try
