CLOSER TO THE SUN
I’ve got to go, but I’ll be back in the summer
As much as I wish it wasn’t so
I know my way just from the shape of the mountain
I know that it’s green beneath the snow
And I’ll be thinking of you while I’m sat at home

Can you feel the sun, can you touch the sky?
Can you see the earth reflecting in your eye?
Can you taste the air, can you feel the love?
Now you’re standing where you’re closer to the sun

You haven’t changed, there’s still a child in your eyes girl
I’ll be holding you near despite the range
Your heart’s as true as the words of a wise man
But I only wish we shared the page
And I’ll be thinking of you while I’m sat at home

Can you feel the sun, can you touch the sky?
Can you see the earth reflecting in your eye?
Can you taste the air, can you feel the love?
Now you’re standing where you’re closer to the sun

Well, I’ve been waiting for this for longer than I’ve even known you girl
I can see the love that’s in your eyes
​
Can you feel the sun, can you touch the sky?
Can you see the earth reflecting in your eye?
Can you taste the air, can you feel the love?
Now you’re standing where you’re closer to the sun
