Closer than you appear

And you’d say

As we drive into the sun

We are almost there my love

My innocent one

Back down this old road

In my trusty time machine

My thoughts on overload

Child of mine your light still shines

Where did the time go?

It’s here there and everywhere

Always fast and never slow

And you’d say

Bm A

Are we there yet?

As we drive into the sun

We are almost there my love

G A

My innocent one

Bm A

A picture perfect moment

G D

A moment we could share

Laughter from the back seat

We’re always almost there
