About growing apart. You can miss each other while still being together. This song describes the dreams in which you’re closer together again.
Fun fact: this track was inspired by Jungle Book's I Wan'na Be Like You, where the king of the monkeys wants to have the fire. The bridge was inspired by the Mario Kart tune.
lyrics
Ah, check check
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Hoping for a sign that this is still reality
Coming home soon
Coming home soon
Feels like you've been hiding on the dark side of the moon
Ah ooh, ooh, ooooh oohooh
Dream of getting closer
Dream of getting closer to you
Ooh, ooh, ooooh oohooh
Dream of getting closer
Dream of getting closer to you
I don't need much
I don't need much
But recently it feels like we are losing touch
And I miss you
Yeah I miss you
I wanna hold you close and I just don't know what to do
I just don't know what to do
I just don't know what to do
Aah ooh, ooh, ooooh oohooh
Dream of getting closer
Dream of getting closer to you
Ooh, ooh, ooooh oohooh
Dream of getting closer
Dream of getting closer to
You you you you you
Dream of getting closer
Dream of getting closer to you
You-ooh
Ooh
It's days like this
That I long for you
I long for you
It's days like this
I don't know what to do
What to do
It's days like this
That I long for you
I long for you
It's days like this
I don't know what to do
What to do
What to doooooooo
Ooh, ooh, ooooh oohooh
Dream of getting closer
Dream of getting closer to you
Ooh, ooh, ooooh oohooh
Dream of getting closer
Dream of getting closer to
You you you you you you you you
Dream of getting closer
Dream of getting closer to you
Ooh, ooh, ooooh oohooh
Dream of getting closer
Dream of getting closer to you
Hmm
