Almost gave up yesterdayalmost made it to the top
Short of dying just the other dayfell short of picking up a mop

If it s the thought that countsyou 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 comesmy peace of mind

Cause I m closeso closeso close
I m closeso closeso close

Falling short of proving itjust a hair from the truth
Little shy of improving ithere I comeI 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 closeso closeso close
You re closeso closeso close

Well I ve known you foreverwe complete each other s thoughts
Ain t like we never got in troubleit 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 closeso closeso close
We re closeso closeso close
