Story Behind The Song

So Close was written for my friends and I. We had all been through a year of death, money problems, lack of success in the music business and so on… (Music the great healing agent)

Song Description

Sometimes you feel like you’re close to something you want and it slips away. If you just let go of what you can’t control you’ll find that time will bring you what you need. “This too shall pass”… Words to live by.

Lyrics

So Close
Copyright: 2004
Music & lyrics by: Dave Shelton


So close and yet so far to go
If you’re feeling what I feel
Then you know what I know
So close like an old friend
Some day gonna let go, then I’ll know who I am

Time can change some things
If you want it to
And show you what it brings
If you need it to
Time can be so slow
When its time for letting go

So close and yet so far to go
If you’re feeling what I feel
Then you know what I know
So close like an old friend
Some day gonna let go, then I’ll know who I am
(Solo)
So much lost in the past
But it’s not all gone
This too shall pass
It’s a brand new dawn

So close and yet so far to go
If you’re feeling what I feel
Then you know what I know
So close like an old friend
Some day gonna let go, then I’ll know who I am
