Close

It's just another simple voice mail message
I'll pick you up, and we'll do dinner by the fire
And we'll just watch it snow
It's from a year ago

Baby, I love you, and I can't wait to see you tonight
I've been thinking 'bout you all day long
She pushes nine to save
She still can't erase

'Cause it makes her feel close
Makes her smile, it's like he's
With her almost
'Til the tears take over

She's still in hell
But she tells herself
She's ready to let him go
'Cause that makes her feel close

It's just a worn out Notre Dame t-shirt
She's gotten mad and tried to throw that thing away
At least a hundred times
But she's got it on tonight

He used to wear it on the weekend just running around
Probably forgot he even left it behind
She says it keeps her warm
Oh, but it's so much more

It makes her feel close
Makes her smile, it's like he's
With her almost
'Til the tears take over

She's still in hell
But she tells herself
She's ready to let him go
'Cause that makes her feel close

Just sayin' goodbye
Gettin' on with her life
Maybe give love another try
One more try, one more try

It makes her feel close
Makes her smile, it's like he's
With her almost
'Til the tears take over

She's still in hell
But she tells herself
She's ready to let him go
'Cause that makes her feel, it makes her feel close
It makes her feel close, makes her feel

It's just a worn out Notre Dame t-shirt
She's gotten mad and tried to throw that thing away
At least a hundred times
But she's got it on tonight
