So Close But So Far Away

[Medicine Ball]

opinions are valued and appreciated.

you miss someone the most when they're right next to you
but you can't have them .. it's like i'm so close
but at the same time, i'm so far away ..

you're on my mind, in my heart and my thoughts all combined
but you don't realise, that at night ... i sort of rewind
all my memories of you .. and play them all in my mind
i dream of a day where i can be calling you mine
i understand that you're popular, and i'm falling behind
in the pecking order, it's fine. 'cause i don't expect more
but i think you're beautiful, gorgeous, it's more than just sexual
your smile leaves me perplexed, all flustered and nervous
but to you i'm nothing, i'm not even touching the surface
i'm not rushing the service, i'm not trying to win you
but i promise if i had the chance i won't be the guy who will bin you
i wear my heart on my sleeve .. just so that you can see it (look)
i wish you could see it .. just so you could believe it (i love you)
i wish i had the courage to make a move .. not just leave it
i wish you could see that my heart is yours ... i don't need it

so close, but so far away
it's breaking up my heart today
i just don't know what to say
when you're so close but far away

christmas is approaching and we talk about the lights
all the decorations that make us smile, and all of it's bright
.. of course i sit tight, and wait for you to realise
that when i look into your eyes i see the beauty in them eyes
i can't hold your hand because that would give it all away
but together we sit outside dreaming up winter holidays
i'm so close to you, but at the same time i'm really far away (really far away)
and whenever i have to go i can't tell you that i really wanna stay ..
it's really hard for me to keep up with this charade
i'm acting like your friend ... but inside of my brain
i can only think about how i wanna kiss the side of your face (i must resist)
and whisper to you softly as we sit outside in the rain ..
but the silence remains, you don't know how i truly feel
i go over in my head about how i can soon reveal
the emotions in my heart, but you've got another man
i'm not a home wrecker, i love you .. i just don't understand ..

so close, but so far away
it's breaking up my heart today
i just don't know what to say
when you're so close but far away

The touching the surface and rushing the service are really the only ones that rhyme. Maybe the calling you mine and falling behind. I don't know what kind of accent you have but but for me you're on my mind, thoughts all combined and sort of rewind does not rhyme at all.

they're slanted rhymes. i swear eminem does it all the time, along with other great rappers.

[classthe_king]

Yeah, people always say there slant rhymes, i don't really like them but its everyones opinion.

the second verse of stay wide awake has so many slanted rhymes, do you not like it? i think it sounds amazing and is one of his best verses in terms of multies.

I think the second verse of stay wide awake is overrated.
