Close Together (As You And Me)

Everybody knows that the grass is close to the ground

Fifteen unces and a half are close to a pound

Everybody knows that the leaves are close to the tree

But there's yet to be for them to see

Things as close together as you and me.



Everybody knows Niagara is close to the Falls

And the fact is known that windows are close to the walls

Everybody knows that Nashville is close to Tennessee

But there's yet to be for them to see

Things as close together as you and me.



Grass will wilt when you pull it from the ground

You'll lose weight when you take away a pound

Leaves will die when you chop down the tree

Like I would if you would taken from me.



Niagara wouldn't be seen without Falls

Windows wouldn't be broke without walls

Nashville's in Tennessee

And love will always be in you and and me.



Everybody knows that freight trains are close to the track

And the truth is known that shoe soles are close to the tracks

Everybody knows that the sea shores are close to the sea

But there's yet to be for them to see

Things as close together as you and me.



Oh, things as close together as you and me...
