Closer to Home Lyrics

Today I got myself back.
I've been looking so long.
Another lonely track
got me closer to home.
In memory of the day
we stopped trying to hide
I came today just to say
you took the thorn from my side
I know it's not easy to be with me
But you never stop crossing my mind
Let's just say you've got one hell of a hold on me
The only price to pay
Do you know you've done one heck of a thing
To free my mind from yesterday
Let's just say
Sometime we'll read to the end
When all the colour has dried
You've been more than a friend
Now's the time for goodbye
Would you come to see me
Just let me know that you're there
I know it's not easy to be with me
But you never stop crossing my mind
Let's just say you've got one hell of a hold on me
The only price to pay
Do you know you've done one heck of a thing
To free my mind from yesterday
Let's just say
bridge - see also note below
Let's just say you've got one hell of a hold on me
The only price to pay
Do you know you've done one heck of a thing
To free my mind from yesterday
Let's just say
Today I got myself back.
I've been looking so long
Another lonely track
got me closer to home
