Won'T You Come Closer?

Closer I fall 
Away from 
Pervious thoughts 
I thought had 
Stuck 
Sticking to me 
Like crazy glue 
I believed 
All the things 
Said 
All the situations 
Dreamt inside my 
Head 
Closer I fell 
For what was 
So far from me 
But close enough 
In my mind 
To pretend I was 
A pretty enough 
Thought to keep 
Around in your mind 
Building it up 
So high I thought 
It'd touch the sky 
Believing with 
My eyes 
Close enough 
To see what 
All of this really means 
To you and me 
I will fall again 
Someday and if 
It's the same story 
With the same lines 
The same smile 
The same voice 
Then I will know 
How things will turn out 
Won't I?
