Closer

Walking in london like I did as a child
I feel the cool air on the back of my neck
I am passing through the neighbourhood where I grew up
It doesn't feel like it used to
Doesn't feel like it used to.

Did I try to control you?
Yeah, I get lost in my own world
So I go through all the words I ever said
And it feels like the world is crashing down.

Let's light up the city
Yeah, the buildings ain't so pretty
Let's have the time of our lives.

We've never been closer than
We've never been closer than now
Closer than we ever dreamed of
We've never been closer than now.

These are the days of excess
You want the moon 'cause it's been calling you.

So let's light up the city
The buildings ain't so pretty
And we're having the time of our lives.

We've never been closer than
We've never been closer than now
Closer than we ever dreamed of
We've never been closer than now.

We've never been closer than
We've never been closer than now.

Closer than we ever dreamed of
We've never been closer than now.

Walking through london like I did as a child
Yeah, the spotlight can't keep up with us no more
I feel the cool air on the back of my neck
Yeah, it's you that can turn this world around.
