Too Close Lyrics

Cover art for Too Close lyrics by Alex Clare

To me he has fallen out of love and does not know how to get out.

He's promised that he would be with this woman forever but... as time passes, they know one another so well, they know all the ins and outs of each other. There are no more secrets, no mystery, no excitement... The monotony of the relationship has caused something to stir in him, wanting, needing and seeking more. He knows too much about this woman, they are now TOO CLOSE for him to feel the passion and excitement of love. She has become his best friend now but he knows he needs more. Does he stay with her and live a lie, or be true to his self and part ways? He doesn't know how to tell her this cause he doesn't want to hurt her... but she needds someone who can give her the love that he loves knows she deserves. He just can't deliver it anymore.

This is a struggle between the OLD man that fell in love with her and the NEW man he has become because of her.

Amen

I think you got it in one...

That's exactly what I think, too. And that's why I love this song, it describes my situation some months ago..
