Album Cover Closer than most

Closer than most

Beautiful South

4

Well I can't find the size your eyes are

wide open and you made me laugh a little last night

Yes it was frantic it was young it was sweet but a sweet

worth every bite

Now I'm not normally one to be greedy but I had to be greedy with you

five years six days the whole of the month

wouldn't satisfy my only sweet tooth.

CHORUS

Well it can take many years to forge a friendship,

it can take a lifetime to be close but we took all the shortcuts

used our hearts as a map and we still got closer than most

Hey, hey, hey hey, Hey,

hey hey hey, Hey hey, hey hey Well excuse my staring but its just yourlooks are

a standard well above myself

Your face might mean zip to you but to me its something else

All I can do is thank you

- I wish that every dream you have will come true

Five years, six years the whole of your life

I'll be wishing further riches for you.

REPEAT CHORUS

Your desperate, his only chance of a compliment,

he gave the plain the blues

turned supermodel into last years poor I'm god damn

shining your shoesv Now I don't mean to be hod carrier the ugly folks

bad news

But tell Miss World to fly to mars cos she really

doesn't like to lose

REPEAT CHORUS

I couldn't count the years that I've been waiting

I wouldn't like to guess at what I've been missing
