Too Close Lyrics

You know I'm not one to break promises
I don't want to hurt you but I need to breathe
At the end of it all you're still my best friend
But there's something inside that I need to release
Which way is right?
Which way is wrong?
How do I say that I need to move on?
You know we're heading separate ways

And it feels like I am just too close to love you
There's nothing I can really say
I can lie no more
I can hide no more
Got to be true to myself
And it feels like I am just too close to love you
So I'll be on my way

You've given me more than I can return
Yet there's oh so much that you deserve
Nothing to say
Nothing to do
I've nothing to give
I must live without you
You know we're heading separate ways

And it feels like I am just too close to love you
There's nothing I can really say
I can lie no more
I can hide no more
Got to be true to myself
And it feels like I am just too close to love you
So I'll be on my way
So I'll be on my way

And it feels like I am just too close to love you
There's nothing I can really say
I can lie no more
I can hide no more
Got to be true to myself
And it feels like I am just too close to love you
So I'll be on my way
So I'll be on my way

What is the Meaning of Too Close?

This track delves into the emotional turmoil of a person stuck in a relationship that has run its course. The protagonist is torn between his love and respect for his partner, and his need for personal space and freedom. He feels suffocated, unable to be true to himself without causing pain. The phrase "too close to love you" signifies this conflict; he still cares deeply for the person but needs distance to breathe. Ultimately, the song is about the painful but necessary process of moving on from a relationship that no longer serves one's growth or happiness. #EmotionalConflict #MovingOn
