We were a flower   That never reach full bloom   We never gave our love much chance to grow   Even though the feeling was wonderful   We went on our separate ways   And all we know   It's what we share is more than most      Cause we came all so very close to love   But we let it slip away   I always wondered why   You never chose to stay   So close to love   Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday   I find myself dreaming of   How we came all so very close to love      I always remember   The way you care for me   Time after time my life was in despair   Yet somehow I always knew you'll be right there   At times I did not have a prayer   I'm sure that you and I both know      Cause we came all so very close to love   But we let it slip away   I always wondered why   You never chose to stay   So close to love   Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday   I find myself dreaming of   How we came all so very close to love      That we came all so very close to love   But we let it slip away   I always wondered why   You never chose to stay   So close to love   Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday   And I think I had a lover   And we came all so very close to love      How can I face the fact it's over   We're through   I can't believe it's true   When I'm alone   Sometimes I wonder if you knew   How much I care for you   So I'm hanging on to the memories   How hard you make sweet love to me   And it's so hard to let it go      Cause we came all so very close to love   But we let it slip away   I always wondered why   You never chose to stay   So close to love   Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday   I find myself dreaming of   How we came all so very close to love      When we came all so very close to love   But we let it slip away   I always wondered why   You never chose to stay   So close to love   Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday   I find myself dreaming of   How we came all so very close to love   We let it slip away   I always wonder why   You never chose to, chose to stay   So close to love   Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday      I find myself dreaming   I find myself dreaming of   Your love, yeah      So close   So very close to your love
