Close to Gone lyrics
by Billy Ray Cyrus
[Intro]
Oh yeah
[Verse 1]
I remember the day the Earth started to shake
We were living on the edge of the last heartbreak
We held on just as long as we could
Didn't let go
Baby knock on wood
We survived the ride
But we were close to gone
[Chorus]
We got a little too close
Not quite but almost
Just about had to give up the ghost
We got a little too close
A little too close to gone
Close to gone
[Verse 2]
We got bruised, yeah we got scarred
Headin' to the place where the goin' gets hard
We knew we were in for one hell of a fight
But we had to hang on with all our might
Coulda crashed and burned
But our faith was a little too strong
[Chorus]
We got a little too close
Not quite but almost
Just about had to give up the ghost
We got a little too close
A little too close to gone
[Bridge]
We might be livin' right now
But we coulda gone wrong
Took a big chance
For a little too long
Got a little too close
A little too close to gone
Oh glory
Yeah
[Chorus]
We got a little too close
Not quite but almost
Just about had to give up the ghost
We got a little too close
A little too close to gone
Close to gone
