[Verse 1]
I’m climbing out the window to make my way to yours
Asleep for just an hour, I can’t do anymore
The streetlights paint the sidewalk
That we walked down before
[Chorus]
How do I get closer to you?
How do I get closer to you?
How do I get closer to you?
How do I get closer to you?
[Verse 2]
The sidewalk ends at our house
You are fast asleep
The same bed where we had every adolescent dream
This time I can’t remember when I used to say
Will you come out tonight?
We’ll talk until the light emerges overhead
We won’t go back to bed
We'll jog our memories with all the songs we used to sing
Standing like we did before
You had wandered so far out of reach
[Bridge]
You're so far away
How do I get closer to you?
How do I get closer to you?
Won't you come out or let me come over?
Won't you come out or let me come over?
Won't you come out or let me come over?
Hands in my hand, head on my shoulder
Won't you come out or let me come over?
[Verse 3]
Will you come out tonight?
We’ll talk until the light emerges overhead
We won’t go back to bed
We'll jog our memories with all the songs we used to sing
Standing like we did before
You had wandered so far out of reach
[Chorus]
How do I get closer to you?
How do I get closer to you?
(You're so far away)
How do I get closer to you?
How do I get closer to you?
(You're so far away)
How do I get closer to you?
How do I get closer to you?
[Outro]
Won't you come out or let me come over?
Won't you come out or let me come over?
(You're so far away)
Won't you come out or let me come over?
Hands in my hand, head on my shoulder
(You're so far away)
Won't you come out or let me come over?
Won't you come out or let me come over?
