Well, you, knew just what to do
When I slipped for you
Knelt like I'd marry you
You said again, on two
Every tear brings me a little bit closer
Well, if you clean that mess we're through
And if you mend that dress we're through
No one can wear it like you do
Every tear brings me a little bit closer
Yeah, I saw you kill a thousand lights
As you passed them by you sighed
"I didn't even try
Now watch me when I try"
Every tear brings me a little bit closer
Well, if you clean that mess we're through
And if you mend that dress we're through
No one can wear it like you do
Every tear brings me a little bit closer
Well, if you clean that mess we're through
And if you change that dress we're through
No one can wear me like you do
Every tear brings me a little bit closer to you
Oh, I saw them drop, yeah, watched them die
You said I didn't even try
I'm torn a little bit closer
Every tear brings me a little bit closer
Well, if you clean that mess we're through
And if you mend that dress we're through
No one can wear it like you do
Every tear brings me a little bit closer
Every tear brings me a little bit closer
Every tear brings me a little bit closer to you
