close and apart | we were GHOSTS from the start

it took me all of this to feel your pulse

that pull toward you - absolutely my all

closer than we’ve ever been, yet so far apart

been there a thousand times alone in the dark

at one time we loved - i know it wasn’t real

not possible in these minds - this life - so revealed

one day we’ll meet death; forever we will part

we’ll face it together as one in the dark

i see you so clearly for what you truly are

before, off in the distance, seemingly way too far

so close yet so far apart

we had no chance, as ghosts from the start
