lyrics

V1
In the summer of 84
Me and my friend camped out on the floor
Watching a rocket man carry the flame
I remember the wonder we shared that day
But no matter how I try

I can’t get close to you

V2
That day you showed me
how to ride my bike
If I close my eyes I can almost feel that pride
Now I’ve been searching ever since
To relive that feeling once again
But no matter how I try

I can’t get close to you

V3
Ain’t nobody who can me lift me up
Ain’t nobody who can bury me down so low
You might think I just let it go
But hey how would you know
because no matter how I try

I can’t get close to you

BR
Can't get close to you
I can't get you close to you
No matter how hard I try
Always left by and by
Always. Alwyas
Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na

V4
So it’s time I start anew
I got to move on not with but without you
And I’ll always feel it’s a crying shame
That a pact so tight fell by the ways
But no matter how I try

I can’t get close to you.

Lachy Doley Sydney, Australia

Dubbed the Jimi Hendrix of the Hammond Organ, a player who can pump, pamper and pound unbelievable, intense, ferocious and sometimes transcendent sounds from his organ and clavinet, only to fire powerful bluesy vocals that rip straight from the heart screaming as they pass the vocal chords to produce one mesmerising and unforgettable show. ... more
