Closer
I saw her on a weak spot in the city
I saw her on the corner of the street
I saw her flashing by on a sundaymorning
I think I hear her voice with every beat
Each day she's getting closer, closer
each day she's getting
Closer to this country
closer to the start
closer to my doorstep
closer to my heart
Each day she's getting closer, closer
any day she may be here behind me
here don't look away
here to find me
here to stay
She's the keeper of a promise
mother made long ago
to a little boy dressed in armour
it was carved in his soul
