You Came So Close – Andrew PetersonBy You could no more kill the darknessThan you could raise the sunAnd the sky was cold and blackLike the barrel of a gunAnd I remember the trembleIn the words you spokeAs you balanced there on the brinkAt the end of your ropeYou came so close to letting goAnd you knew she would hate youShe would kick you outYou’d been lying in the bed that you madeWhen you broke your vowThen you work in the wastelandOf the truth you toldAnd you turned to see she strayedShe was bright as a band of goldYou came so close to letting goSo don’t let go, ’cause you never knowDon’t let go, you never know for sureAnd the sky in NashvilleIt can bend you low‘Cause the winter here is grayWithout a trace of snowBut there is no shadowOn the silver starsAnd the colder the night isThe closer the heavens areAnd we’re so closeSo don’t let go‘Cause this I knowDon’t let goThis I know for sureThere’s still hope www.pillowlyrics.com419786497975 88k 20
