Dar Williams - Closer To Me Lyrics

You can leave this house
Leave this town
Leave it all to me or you'll never leave the ground

Look at that tiny screen's too small for you
I think you should learn to dream
Just like the dreamers do

What can you do with a day?
What will you wake up and see?
The further you get, the closer to me
(Closer)

Am I the habit you're too tired to break?
I want you to love me
With every step you take

What can you do with a day?
What will you wake up and see?
The further you get, the closer to me
(Closer)

Taj Mahal, Cameroon, back in time, to the moon
(Taj Mahal, Cameroon, back in time, to the moon)
Frozen lake, Cypress trees, Florida's missing keys
(Frozen lake, Cypress trees, Florida's missing keys)
El Dorado, Spain or bust, Eiffel Tower, Paris, just
(El Dorado, Spain or bust, Eiffel Tower, Paris, just)
Find your way in
(Find)

You can leave this house
Leave this town
All that's left to chart is
Nothing less than your own heart

What can you do with a day?
(Your day)
What will you wake up and see?
The further you get, the closer to me
(Closer)

Down the river, down the road, little rock, Tokyo
Dusty trail, flagstaff, in a faded photograph
(Dusty trail, flagstaff, in a faded photograph)
Thunderstorm, golden sands
(Thunderstorm, golden sands)
Cape of Horn, Pakistan, Surinam
(Cape of Horn, Pakistan, Surinam)
Highway One, Chinatown, smoking gun
(Highway One, Chinatown, smoking gun)
Golden Gate, Baltic Sea, painted desert, Laramie
(Golden Gate, Baltic Sea, painted desert, Laramie)
Taj Mahal, Cameroon, back in time, to the moon
(Taj Mahal, Cameroon, back in time, to the moon)
(Ahh)
Frozen lake, Cypress trees, Florida's missing keys
(Frozen lake, Cypress trees, Florida's missing keys)
El Dorado, Spain or bust, Eiffel Tower, Paris, just
(El Dorado, Spain or bust, Eiffel Tower, Paris, just)
Find your way in
(Find)
