Better Than Ezra is one of my favorite bands, and I was listening to their 2001 album Closer while at work today. The title track came on, and not having listened to it for a while, I found myself near tears. The song made me think of Clay and Parker, especially the second verse. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhkNMQF7_fI This video is just an acoustic studio recording, as they never released it as a single. Someone MIGHT find this song and pass this along to Clay and Jaymes in consideration for the next album....it'd be perfect for him! Edited by TigerCubGirl, Apr 6 2009, 07:39 PM.

Here are the lyrics: And the morning light was breaking Slowly moving across the bed He gets up without her waking To the voices in his head Through the shadows in the hallway To the room they painted blue And on the inside he is frightened At a loss for what to do Until he opens up his eyes And the angels all look down Even closer than this life Closer than your faith Closer than the things that you hold dearly And in vain Closer than this life Falling through again Giving more than anything That you could hope to win And he knows his life is changing It’s never easy letting go For the first time you are mortal As the child before you grows And he wonders at the sight Of the joy that he has found Even closer than this life Closer than your faith Closer than the things that you hold dearly And in vain Closer than this life Falling through again Giving more than anything That you could hope to win And what would you intend to find? Solitude? your peace of mind? Holding out for something less Than touching the hand of God? Even closer than this life Closer than this faith Closer than the things that you hold dearly And in vain Closer than this life Falling through again Giving more than anything That you could hope to win Closer than this life Closer finally Living for the only thing You ever made complete Oh, for the one thing That you both did perfectly Edited by TigerCubGirl, Apr 6 2009, 07:41 PM.

Tiger, thank you for posting the lyrics to that song. I did have some trouble understanding the words when I watched it. What a beautiful song in melody and lyrics.
