" We Were Once So Close " (Lyrics By Gerald Logan) (Verse 1) We were once so close, just a breath apart, Sharing secrets in the dark, our hand on each other's heart. Climbed those fences, broke a few rules, Two young souls, the world was our school. Your laugh still echoes through these halls, But now Heaven answers when I call. (Chorus) We were once so close, thirteen months and a mile, Trouble and laughter, mischief and smiles. Now you’re in Heaven, I’m still down here, Living with the silence, wishing you near. But I know one day, like when we were young, Side by side again, raising Cain, and having fun. (Verse 2) We shared the weight of growing pains, Hand me down dreams, and summer rains. Your footsteps fade but I still chase, Through every shadow I see your face. You were my compass when I was lost, Now I carry your love, no matter the cost. (Chorus) We were once so close, thirteen months and a mile, Trouble and laughter, mischief and smiles. Now you’re in Heaven, I’m still down here, Living with the silence, wishing you were near. But I know one day, like when we were young, Side by side again, raising Cain, and having fun. (Bridge) From earth to Heaven feels too far apart, But love still ties us, heart to heart. I can almost feel your shoulder near, Whispering, “Brother, don’t you fear.” (Final Chorus) We were once so close, and we’ll be again, No goodbye can break what won’t ever end. When my road is finished, and my race is run, I’ll find you waiting, and we’ll chase the sun. We were once so close— And forever we’ll be, Together again for eternity...
