Ooh yeah

You know i never wanted to be closer

And i'll still be here until it's over

No, no i never wanted to be closer

But you'll be back, i could've told you



Well i always knew

Yes i could see it coming

Your ambitious streak

You always want things beyond your reach

Well now you've got what you wanted

And you're free to be the things

You always said you'd be

You're up there looking down

Tell me what do you see - oh



Cos you know

You know i never wanted to be closer

And i'll still be here until it's over

No, no i never wanted to be closer

Yeah, but you'll be back, i could've told you



Well it seems to me

That you've got to fight for yourself

In this world we live in

It's dog-eat-dog and never give in

Why worry when you're holding the aces

Don't throw it away cos you know

I'd rather be you than me

Up there looking down

Tell me what do you see - oh



Hey hey yeah



Ooh yeah

You know i never wanted to be closer (never wanted)

And i'll still be here 'til it's over

No, no i never wanted to be closer (never wanted)

Ooh but you'll be back, i could've told you



It's been a long time coming

But at last we seem to be moving on, straight ahead

We're finally getting something done

Time flies and 'fore you know it

You'll be getting closer to where

You always knew you'd be

Up there looking down

Tell me what do you see - oh



Cos you know

No, no i never wanted to be closer (never wanted)

I'll still be here until it's over

No, you know i never wanted to be closer (never wanted)

Yeah but you'll be back, i could've told you



Hey hey yeah...
