Without the root, you ain't got no tree And without the branches, you aint got no leaves To understand her is to understand me Cause thats how close we are Without a sea you ain't got no air And it ain't no walkin if you aint got the legs Understand i use them eyes to see That's how close we are
[chorus] Heart to heart Breath to breath She fills me up til there aint none left No space, no time Her spirits my mind You see, that's how close we are Thats how close we are [x2]
Without the stars, there's no galaxy And without the river, you dont have no sea Just look at my life, and its her you'll see Cause thats how close we are And without a voice no one can hear you sing And it ain't no flying without the wings So if you see me flying It's her carrying me That's how close we are
[chorus]
[breakdown] She talks with me She walks with me She's holding me And yes, shes teaching me Everything i can't do Everything i can't say She does for me She prays with me She cries with me She's loving me Nothing could compare to the love we share So that woman and man Who understands You can say:
Heart to heart Breath to breath She fills me up til there ain't none left No space, no time Her spirits my mind You see, that's how close we are Thats how close we are [x11]
