Keane – Closer Now Lyrics 15 years ago
I like to wake alone
To lie and turn to stone
Comfort me or come to me
I won't go on

I like to walk alone
To keep my head screwed on
Well I'm the best, so well done me
I won't go on believing, believing
I believe you might turn from your love, wait around

If I go then I'm alone
If I stay then it will mean
Waiting on my own
It's the pattern of my life
When you care and you cannot feel
And you know that it's for real
So you leave me on my own
To live the pattern of my life

Make time to be
All this and more for me
Well you're the best so well done you
I won't go on believing, believing
I believe you might turn from your love, wait around

If I go then I'm alone
If I stay then it will mean
Waiting on my own
It's the pattern of my life
When you care and you cannot feel
And you know that it's for real
So you leave me on my own
To live the pattern of my life

I believe you might stumble and come closer now

If I go then I'm alone
If I stay then it will mean
Waiting on my own
It's the pattern of my life
When you care and you cannot feel
And you know that it's for real
You just leave me on my own
To live the pattern of my life

Aaaahhhh...
You might stumble and come closer now

Like so many songs it can mean what you need or want it to mean.

For me it is about someone I have fallen for but she is already taken. I believe she has similar feelings for me, but she is a good person and won't turn from her love. So I am in a quandary. Should I go away from her and be alone or stay, which will mean waiting on my own without her. I believe if I stay around she might stumble and come closer..which is what I want.

Don't know if that's what the song is really about.. but it works for me.
