We`re So Close — текст песни (Carly Simon)





I`ve lived in all of the houses he`s built
The one in the air
The one underground
The one on the water
The one in the sand
He says: It doesn`t matter how we live
He says: It doesn`t matter where we live
We`re so close we can dispense with houses
We don`t need a home at all

It`s come to be a habit with me to dine alone
You`re never home
And the evenings end so early
He says: we can be close from afar
He says: the closest people always are
We`re so close that in our separation,
There`s no distance at all.

Sometimes I gout to the car,
Turn on the headlights
Intending to leave-
Sometimes I need to hear the words,
My imagination`s not as strong as you`d believe-
But I`ve talked to you;
You haven`t listened at all.
I`ve said I`m numb,
I can`t even cry,
I`m stuck with acting out a part.
He says: what do words ever reveal?
He says: in speaking one can be so false-
We`re so close we have a silent language,
We don`t need words at all.

There`s a husky voice
That speaks to me in the dark
And on the phone from studios
And Westside bars,
Through tunnels of long distance.
He says: we`re beyond flowers
He says: We`re beyond compliments-
We`re so close we can dispense with love
We don`t need love at all.
