Never Too Close Lyrics by Gordon Lightfoot

Never Too Close Lyrics

    I remember when best friends were jealous lovers
    Lyin' warm asleep beneath the covers
    Dreaming of belonging to each other
    And so we tried, never too close
    Never too near, dyin' in time
    And so we cried but that is alright
    We meant no one no harm
    I remember when best friends were not mistaken
    Long before that freedom was forsaken
    Learnin' 'bout all the good things
    In the world worth believin'
    And so we tried, never too close
    Never too near, dyin' in time
    And so we cried but that is alright
    We meant no one no harm

    I remember when jealous lovers would stick together
    When the days were warm and the nights more tender
    When the bonds of truth were not made to measure
    And so we tried, never too close
    Never too near, dyin' in time
    And so we cried but that is alright
    We meant no one no harm
    Try, try as you will
    Following dreams never fulfilled
    And so we cried but that is alright
    We meant no one no harm
