We Fly So Close - Lyrics by Phil Collins


Lyrics
My harbour lights are fading fastsoon they'll disappearalone I sit in darknesshoping someone might come nearthough I wait, though I tryno one ever comesand the feelings that I have flood over methe river starts to run
We fly so closewe fly so closesometimes we fly too close
Every place you run to, everywhere you turnthere are places that you know you should not gobut some bridges just won't burnall my life, though I try
I cannot change the pastand the ghosts that come back to haunt youmake you realise that
We fly so closewe fly so closesometimes we fly too closewe fly too close
My heart is racing much faster nowlife passes before my eyessomething's I see, they make me smilesomething's they make me cryso I look, so I try to finda lesson I can learnthe passing of time hasn't changed my mindand the ghosts I know return
You know we fly so closewe fly so closesometimes we fly too closewe fly too close
We fly so close, you and I sometimessometimes we fly so closewe'll never know how many timeswe fly so closewe fly so close
