The Closer I Get

Edgar Winter

You know I've come such a long long way
From the person that I once knew
And looking back, there were times I thought
I never would make it through

The road goes ever onward
One thing I know is true
The further I go
The closer I get to you

Wherever I am
Whatever I do
The further I go
The closer I get to you

I miss you so when I'm far away
Even though we may be apart
I close my eyes and I see your face
You always are in my heart

I'm on my way back home now
The journey is almost through
The further I go
The closer I get to you

Wherever I am
Whatever I do
The further I go
The closer I get to you

When I was young and a carefree boy
The years would go on and on
As time goes by they just slip away
And I'm wonderin' where they've gone

I fell in love forever
And that was the day I knew
The further I go
The closer I get to you

Wherever I am
Whatever I do
The further I go
The closer I get to you

Yeah, yeah
The closer I get to you
Little darlin'
The closer I get to you
The closer I get to you
