She got the call to day, one out of the gray.
And when the smoke cleared, it took her breath a way.
She said she did n’t be lieve it could hap pen to me.
I guess we’re all one (G)phone call from our knees.
We’re gon na get there soon.
If ev ’ry build in’ falls and all the stars fade, we’ll still be sing in’ this song, the (G)one they can’t take a way.
Gon na get there soon, she’s gon na be there, too.
Cry in’ in her room, pray in’, “Lord, come through.”
We’re gon na get there soon.
Oh, it’s your light.
Oh, it’s your way.
Pull me out of the dark just to shoul der the weight.
Cry in’ out now from so far a way.
You pull me clos er to love,
(Am)clos er to love.
Meet me once a gain down off Lake Mich i gan where we could feel the storm (G)blow in’ down with the wind.
And don’t a pol o gize for all the tears you’ve cried.
You’ve been way too strong now for all your life.
I’m gon na get there soon
’Cause (Fsus2)you are (C)all that I’ve wait (Am)ed for (G)all of my (Fsus2)life.
Gon na get there.
(Fsus2)You are (C)all that I’ve wait (Am)ed for (G)all of my (Fsus2)life.
You pull me clos er to love,
ooh, ooh.
Clos er to love,
ooh, ooh.
Pull me clos er to love.
Pull me clos er to love,
ooh, ooh.
Clos er to love,
oh no.
Clos er to love,
ooh.
Clos er to love.
Pull me clos er to love.
