THAT'S HOW CLOSE WE ARE




I know a lot of people have forgotten about 112 and what not and I can understand it because I had forgotten about them myself but as I was making a new music play list I came across a couple of their songs that just really make me be like damn under all that bumping and grinding and oversexed lyrics they had some decent for real love you deep type songs. On their last album they had this song called That's how close we are this is one of those songs where you have to stop and just really get still and listen to what the singer is trying to tell you. Okay first the lyrics read them through then hit the video, of course they didn't put a video out someone put a video together and used the song to convey a message but this is one of their songs that I used to put in heavy rotation when I was playing their cd.

Title That's How Close We Are
Artist 112
Album Pleasure & Pain

Na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na na

Without the root, you ain't got no tree
And without the branches, you aint got no leaves
To understand her is to understand me
Cause thats how close we are
Without a sea you ain't got no air
And it ain't no walkin if you aint got the legs
Understand i use them eyes to see
That's how close we are

[chorus]
Heart to heart
Breath to breath
She fills me up til there aint none left
No space, no time
Her spirits my mind
You see, that's how close we are
Thats how close we are [x2]

Without the stars, there's no galaxy
And without the river, you dont have no sea
Just look at my life, and its her you'll see
Cause thats how close we are
And without a voice no one can hear you sing
And it ain't no flying without the wings
So if you see me flying
It's her carrying me
That's how close we are

[chorus]

[breakdown]
She talks with me
She walks with me
She's holding me
And yes, shes teaching me
Everything i can't do
Everything i can't say
She does for me
She prays with me
She cries with me
She's loving me
Nothing could compare to the love we share
So that woman and man
Who understands
You can say:

Heart to heart
Breath to breath
She fills me up til there ain't none left
No space, no time
Her spirits my mind
You see, that's how close we are
Thats how close we are [x11]

Na na na
