03. Closer To Love

City Of Black & White
by Mat Kearney

 

she got the call today, one out of the grey
and when the smoke cleared, it took her breath away
she said she didn’t believe, it could happen to me
i guess we’re all one phone call from our knees
we’re gonna get there soon
if every building falls, and all the stars fade
we’ll still be singing this song, the one they can’t take away
gonna get there soon, she’s gonna be there too
cryin’ in her room, prayin’ “lord come through”
we’re gonna get there soon

oh it’s your light, oh it’s your way
you pull me out of the dark, just to shoulder the weight
cryin’ out now, from so far away
you pull me closer to love, closer to love

meet me once again, down off lake michigan
where we could feel the storm blowin’ down with the wind
and don’t apologize for all the tears you’ve cried
you’ve been way too strong now for all your life
i’m gonna get there soon, you’re gonna be there too
cryin’ in your room, prayin’ “lord come through”
we’re gonna get there soon

’cause you are all that i’ve waited for all of my life (we’re gonna get there)
you are all that i’ve waited for all of my life
you pull me closer to love, closer to love
pull me closer to love
you pull me closer to love
closer to love, closer to love, closer to love
you pull me closer to love
