Close But No Cigar şarkı sözleri

You came close Close but no cigar You didn't miss by far You know you came this close Close but no cigar Some people sing love songs Everybody's got one This isn't my love song It's more like my love gone wrong song... She came to breakfast And stayed a week But the lie detectors Broke down each time she tried to speak Broke down when she said : "You came close Close but no cigar You didn't miss by far You know you came this close Close but no cigar No matter where you are You know you came this close Close but no cigar" I remember - I remember - I remember The promise in your eyes As black as the night I drove you to the airport And I remember - I remember - I remember The wide Brazillian sky that swallowed you Then I hit thirty Guess I can't complain But I must have been lonely The night I bumped into Lorraine She came for coffee And stayed all night But the lie detectors Broke down every time I tried to smile Broke down like the store of my life And each dream I missed by half a mile Broke down when I told her: "You came close close but no cigar You didn't miss by far You know you came this close close but no cigar No matter where you are You know you came so close Close but no cigar You didn't miss by far You know you came this close Close but no cigar We're better off by far But you know we came this close Close but no cigar
