Lyrics
Closer Everyday
New York seems so far away, it's getting farther everyday
I left there for the Promised Land, seeking golden fields in desert sands
But I know now what I did not then; we are all a part of all we've been
Second sight it cannot change, the past cannot be rearranged
Let me take you back there now, all we were is all a part of all we are right now
I can offer you the proof you seek, don't go away, cause New York's getting
Closer Everyday
My hometowns faded to a scene, of harbor lights and Rockwell themes
But underneath that artist brush hide the demons that I fear to touch
So if you let me take you back, to the days of Dead and Kerouac
And walk along those stony streets, the place were youth and pleasure meet
Let me take you back there now, all we were is all a part of all we are right now
I can offer you the proof you seek, don't go away, cause New York's getting
Closer Everyday
