SO CLOSE TO FOREVER

performed by: Debbie Gibson

Verse 1:

Jealousies

Misconceptions

Opinions

Outside advice



Fears of getting hurt again

Doubt in your eyes

Why do we listen?

Why do we care?

We almost made it there



Chorus:

We came so close to forever

Now what's done is done

There'll be no resurrection

How can life break its promises

I even made this promise to myself

So close but never there again



Verse 2:

Once a king

Now a prince

One step lower

On the list



It's not plain and simple innocence

'Cause we've been through more now

And it's left its scars somehow



CHORUS



Oh, oh, oh now what's done is done

hmmm...

It's close so close but never there again

oh, oh, oh
