The Atlantic was born today, and I'll tell you how
The clouds above opened up and let it out

I was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere
When the water filled every hole
And thousands upon thousands made an ocean
Making islands where no island should go
Oh no

Most people were overjoyed; they took to their boats
I thought it less like a lake and more like a moat
The rhythm of my footsteps crossing floodlands to your door
Have been silenced forever more
The distance is quite simply much too far for me to row
It seems farther than ever before
Oh no

I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer

I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer

So come on, come on
So come on, come on
So come on, come on
So come on, come on

  • This song makes me want to search for "the one." Knowing that she'll be far, I'm willing to risk everything just to see my beautiful, gold-hearten soul mate. Guys, someday, a beautiful woman will walk into your lives and you'll realize why it never worked out with anyone else.

  • Did anyone else hear this on Parenthood? Balled my eyes out...

  • Six Feet Under introduced me to this song, but Parenthood brought me back here. Who cares why anyone came to this video? As long as we're all listening to great music it doesn't really matter. Now shut up and listen to this damn fine work of art.

  • Zoey better give Julia the baby

  • This song is sad, because Everyone has someone that they need so much closer, i know i do.

  • dcfc brought me here (thumbs up!!)

  • Fuck Parenthood! CSI: Miami brought me here!

  • fuck whatever, i took myself here, now.

  • Fuck parenthood, my dad led me here in 2005.

  • Csi mia,i

  • Parenthood...another great episode. Good song, too. 

  • they're not a hundred miles away, nor did i break up with them. i barely even know them. but i wish i did, because i'm starting to feel something and i want them so much closer.
