lyrics

Wake up darlin' it's winter now
The summer's warmth is gone from my bones
Four seasons passed since first we embraced
The hope in my heart is still strong

I just wish you were closer now
Why you gotta be so far away
The souls of my shoes they are wearing down
But that don't bother me

No cause' I just, I just, wanna be closer to you
I just wanna be close
No I just, I just wanna be closer to you
I just wanna be close

I caught a ride down the east coast
From a man much wiser than his age
He said "son I can get you to where you're getting to,
But when you get there what you gonna say?"

Well the note in my hand should be finished by now
But my hand can't keep up with my head
You see I set out this morning to write you a letter
And out came this song instead

Cause' I just, I just, wanna be closer to you
I just wanna be close
Cause' I just, I just wanna be closer to you
I just wanna be close

I drifted off on the way down
The warmth from the heat it just put me out
The wise man he rolls the window down
I'm only and hour from you now

I got a show in the city tonight
I would love it if you would come along
You see I set out this morning to write you a letter
But out came your favorite song
Out came your favorite song

I just, I just, wanna be closer to you
I just wanna be close
I just, I just wanna be closer to you
I just wanna be close
I just wanna be close

Wake up darlin' it's winter now
The summer's warmth is gone from my bones
Four seasons passed since first we embraced
The hope in my heart is still strong

about

Joe Young Milford, New Hampshire

In a world where glitter and glam is imposed on the masses liberally and frequently, it’s comforting to have some semblance of “real” to cut through the noise.

New Hampshirite Joe Young is that element of real. He is the guide – lending all those who take the care to listen – to legitimate six-string, word-spun accord. Honey, he’s got so much love to give. Honey, he’s got so much life to live.
