freda1014 You don’t have to love, like, or even know about Anne Lister or Gentleman Jack to allow the hauntingly beautiful lyrics and music touch your heart. It’s been a long time (think early Joni Mitchell) since a song and songwriter made me feel the way this song does. “But you came so close”—these 5 words break my heart. (And the fact that the artist lives close to my all-time favorite city of Buffalo doesn’t hurt!) Favorite track: I've Been An Icarus.

lyrics

It took a long time
But now I understand why
I keep asking what am I
Lord knows I still don't know
Hold me close in the dark
Because tomorrow will be the hardest part

You came so close
But I was Icarus to the sun
I should have known
I'd have to rise above alone
All alone

How those words fell so sweetly from your lips
And over mine
But you're like water through my hands now
And my love you're showing signs

So hold me closer now
And I'll forget about
The life I saw for us
Written in your eyes

You came so close
But I was icarus to the sun
I should have known
I'd have to rise above alone
