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

  • such a beautiful song

  • Der Anfang klingt tatsächlich wie Inception

  • @manziewins jesus how closed minded can a person be......*shakes head*

  • okay anyone else noticed that right about a tenth of a second after the vid-page loaded the video timer changes from 7:54 to 7:55 ?

    dafuq?

  • This song is so much better than any placement in a movie.

  • KONY 2012

  • just heard them live,closing song,fucking amazing

  • @metalguitarist77 I agree with your base, not your conclusion. Even if you were trying to make a 'point' it is never okay to use that as a retort. I know I will probably suffer a youtuber's homophobic wrath, but it needs to be said.

  • 7 minutes of utopia

  • @mblabezza Totally. Heard them live last night. It was the concert ender and man oh man. Amazing. Just amazing. It was at the brink of tears.
