Closer To Me Lyrics - Dar Williams

You can leave this house, leave this town 

Leave it all to me or you'll never leave the ground 

Look at that tiny screen's too small for you 

I think you should learn to dream just like the dreamers do 

What can you do with a day? 

What will you wake up and see? 

The farther you get 

The closer to me 

Am I the habit you're too tired to break? 

I want you to love me with every step you take 

What can you do with a day? 

What will you wake up and see? 

The farther you get 

The closer to me 

Taj Mahal, Cameroon, back in time, to the moon 

Frozen lake, cypress trees, Florida's missing keys 

El Dorado, Spain or bust Eiffel Tower, Paris 

Just find your way in 

You can leave this house, leave this town 

All that's left to chart 

Is nothing less than your own heart 

What can you do with a day? 

What will you wake up and see? 

The farther you get 

The closer to me 

Down the river, down the road, Little Rock, Tokyo 

Dusty trail, Flagstaff, in a faded photograph 

Thunderstorm, Golden Sands, Cape of Horn, Pakistan 

Suriname, Highway One, Chinatown, smoking gun 

Golden Gate, Baltic Sea, Painted Desert, Laramie 

Taj Mahal, Cameroon, back in time, to the moon 

Frozen lake, cypress trees, Florida's missing keys 

El Dorado, Spain or bust, Eiffel Tower, Paris 

Just find your way in
