Letras de We’re So Close

I′ve lived in all the houses he's built
The one in the air, the one underground
The one on the water, the one in the sand
He says it doesn′t matter how we live
He says it doesn't matter where we live
We're so close we can dispense with houses
We don′t need a home at all

It′s come to be a habit with me to dine alone
You're never home and the evenings end so early
He says we can be close from afar
He says the closest people always are
We′re so close that in our separation
There's no distance at all

Sometimes I go out to the car and turn on the headlights
Intending to leave
Oh, sometimes I need to hear the words
My imagination′s not as strong as you believe
Oh, but I've talked to you
You haven′t listened at all

I've said I'm numb, I can′t even cry
I′m stuck with acting out a part
He says what do words ever reveal?
He says in speaking one can be so false
We're so close we have a silent language
We don′t need words at all

There's a husky voice that speaks to me in the dark
And on the phone from studios and west side bars
Through tunnels of long distance
He says we′re beyond flowers
He says we're beyond compliments
We′re so close we can dispense with love
We don't need love at all
