Oh we try,
To break down these small barriers that hold so firm in our way,
It's strange we should find our end here,
I'm trying to understand,
Even though you don't care,

It's all just so perfect,
If only it was greener on the other side,
Even if we realised,
A part of you means it when you say goodbye,

It's so close to home,
So close to me,
Without any misdirection,
You jumped right in,
If you try hard enough,
You can paint the picture,
Of how things could have been.

There's not a word or phrase,
That could captivate me again in that way,
I would make a scene,
I would change my world,
Just to put this straight again,

It's so close to home,
So close to me,
Without any misdirection,
You jumped right in,
If you try hard enough,
You can paint the picture,
Of how things could have been.

Had this have been perfect,
I'm sure we would both tell the truth,
I don't need to confess,
I'll shut up,
For once and all,
Your minds made up

It's so close to home,
So close to me,
Without any misdirection,
You jumped right in,
If you try hard enough,
You can paint the picture,
Of how things could have been.
