You came close
Close but no cigar
You didn't miss by far
You know you came this close
Close but no cigar
Some people sing love songs
Everybody's got one
This isn't my love song
It's more like my love gone wrong song
She came to breakfast and stayed a week
But the lie detectors
Broke down each time she tried to speak
Broke down when she said"You came closeClose but no cigarYou didn't miss by farYou know you came this close""Close but no cigarNo matter where you areYou know you came this closeClose but no cigar"
I remember, 
I remember, 
I remember the promise in your eyes
As black as the night, 
I drove you to the airport
And I remember, 
I remember, 
I remember
The wide Brazillian sky that swallowed you, you
Then I hit thirty
Guess I can't complain
But I must have been lonely
The night 
I bumped into 
LorraineShe came for coffee and stayed all night
But the lie detectors broke down every time 
I tried to smile
Broke down like the story of my life
And each dream 
I missed by half a mile
Broke down when 
I told her"You came closeClose but no cigarYou didn't miss by farYou know you came this close""Close but no cigarNo matter where you areYou know you came so close""Close but no cigarYou didn't miss by farYou know you came this close""Close but no cigarWe're better off by farBut you know we came this closeClose but no cigar"
