There are moments in life when things seem like they have finally become as you have dreamed, but look again and they are gone. So close, and yet so far. Hold onto what is here and now to keep it near your heart.

Lyrics:
Something’s coming, burning slowly, it reignites my eyes.
Memory simmers as you approach, our history comes alive.
We get a little closer every time.

There were flames between our years that kept me from your side.
But distant hearts shed cooling tears to wash them from our mind.
We get a little closer…. just a little closer, every time.

Every time you come around, you light up my horizon.
And I hope to see the smile that’ll say, this time, we will be one!
We get a little closer every time.

Dreams…fears…closing in…years! Hold on…hold on…

Circle the moment, we have been waiting.
What have we waited for?
I dream beyond touching your love beyond dreaming
when I give my heart to yours.
We get a little closer…. just a little closer, every time.

Every time you come around, you light up my horizon.
And I hope to see the smile that’ll say, this time, we will be one.

We get a little closer… come a little closer…

We couldn’t get much closer… this time…. it’s time.
