Almost gave up yesterday, almost made it to the top

Short of dying just the other day, fell short of picking up a mop

If it's the thought that counts, you can always count on me

I think about it all the time

It's going to hit me like a bolt of white lightning

Here it comes, my peace of mind

Cause I'm close, so close, so close

I'm close, so close, so close

Falling short of proving it, just a hair from the truth

Little shy of improving it, here I come, I'm coming through

Pretty soon I'm going to shed this skin I'm wearing

I've been keeping it inside

No one cares just how you got there

No one cares how hard you've tried

But you're close, so close, so close

You're close, so close, so close

Well I've known you forever, we complete each other's thoughts

Ain't like we never got in trouble, it's just we've never gotten caught

And if you've got a secret, it's in me you can confide

And if we ever get split up, I'll always be on your side

Cause we're close, so close, so close

We're close, so close, so close
