The Closest Thing lyrics

You`re the words that come out easy
and I am speechless at best
Your star it seems to shine above the rest
you`re the face before the cameras
the smile i`d like to earn
The closest thing to perfect in a hollywood
to burn
Your the beauty that is deeper than eyes can merely see
The closest thing to perfect
but the farthest thing from me

(Chorus x2)

And I`d love to be the shoulder that you cry on
and I`d love to be the friend you call when things are great

You`re the dream that hasn`t ended
and I`m still anxious for rest
Your words they seem to hang above my head
You`re the bud before the flower
unfurls into full bloom
captivating beauty
but it may be all too soon
you`re the song that writes a story but leaves alot to read
The closest thing to perfect
but the farthest thing from me

(chorus x2)

and like I really deserve a chance
to sit across a table
and tell you that I think you`re wonderful
and I think you`re something special
I guess this is my only chance to say
I wish I knew you because
I`m sure you`re wonderful if I`d get to know you.
