Close to Me (Fitz / F2 Studios Demo 2/85)

I've waited hours for this

I've made myself so sick

I wish I'd stayed asleep today

I never thought this day would end

I never thought tonight could ever be

This close to meJust try to see in the dark

Just try to make it work

To feel the fear before you're here

I make the shapes come much too close

I pull my eyes out

Hold my breath

And wait until I shakeBut if I had your faith

Then I could make it safe and clean

If only I was sure

That my head on the door was a dreamI've waited hours for this

I've made myself so sick

I wish I'd stayed asleep today

I never thought this day would end

I never thought tonight could ever be

This close to me
