I Came So Close

Last night was so close
I had the glass against my throat
Then she ran outside
Sitting by my side
Telling me to never give up
I am tired of the lies
I love her for helping me
As I collapsed to my knees
I love her now more than ever
I just wish that we could be together
If she tries we can make it through
No matter rain nor shine
We'll make this world for two...
