Bilingual
It brings out the nervousness in me
This talk of the future
And all of it moving at light speed
Too much to devour
Well, pray that we make it in one piece
But who are we fooling?
A fire that keeps a nation warm
Or it's undoing?
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
And we are closer tonight
Closer than ever
We are closer tonight
The touch of a finger
And arrows that fly across the sea
Eyeing the hour
A magic that we don't dare repeat
The trick of unraveling
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
And driverless cars on market street
Around every corner
But what is to stop us before
We turn on each other
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
We are closer tonight
Closer than ever
We are closer tonight
The touch of a finger
We are closer tonight
Closer than ever
We are closer tonight
Closer than ever
We are closer tonight
The touch of a finger
We are closer tonight
Closer to Heaven
