CLOSE AS A WHISPER
Chorus:
Come, love, fall on my heart
Be close as a whisper, but never so far
As the blood in my veins, the skin on my bones
Don't leave me, don't leave me, don't leave me alone
Come, love, fall on my heart...come
From before I could walk, I was destined to trip into the grave
Before my first thought, you would suffer for choices I would make
Am I salt of the earth or salt in a wound?
Will I rise from the dirt, or will I rot in this tomb?
I'm falling on my knees...
(Chorus)
Do I believe? Or do I just fool myself?
I can love most with ease, but do I love the least as well?
I can say I believe in the importance of love
Then turn around and leave when they don't measure up
I'm falling on my knees...
