Someday a lover might take you away
Then you'll discover what happened today
When I left in the middle of the game
There's a half empty glass on the floor by my chair
I didn't remember that I left it there
When I heard her foot hit the stair
The closer she gets, the more I forget
About everything that's not her
I just left the store when she called on the phone
I ran all the way, I forgot that I drove
When she told me she just got home
I didn't notice my shoes were untied
I ran up the stairs, and I tripped a few times
As down from the window she smiled
The closer she gets, the more I forget
About everything that's not her
You might think my world
Would get smaller with time
But it keeps getting bigger
'Cause there's more I can find
And the closer she gets, the more I forget
About everything that's not her
