Maybe we'll never be seen together
At night on a crowded street
I may never reach across your body
And kill the light when you're asleep

Maybe I'll never watch you dressing
Or sound too familiar on the phone
But I can touch your hand that's against me
And take that moment home

That's as close as I'll get to loving you
Even though there's nothing else I'd rather do
I can dream, I can hope, I can see but still I know
That's as close as I'll get to loving you

I won't be there when you need holding
But I'm sure that he can pull you through
But I can sing this song to everybody
And pretend it's not about you

That's as close as I'll get to loving you
Even though there's nothing else I'd rather do
I can dream, I can hope, I can see but still I know
That's as close as I'll get to loving you

That's as close as I'll get to loving you
Even though there's nothing else I'd rather do
I can dream, I can hope, I can see but still I know
That's as close as I'll get to loving you

That's as close as I'll get to
Yeah that's as close as I'll get to
That's as close as I'll get to loving you

Aaron Tippin

Aaron Dupree Tippin (born July 3, 1958 in Pensacola, Florida) is an American country music artist and record producer. Initially a songwriter for Acuff-Rose Music, he gained a recording contract with RCA Records in 1990. His debut single, "You've Got to Stand for Something" became a popular anthem for American soldiers fighting in the Gulf War and helped to establish him as a neotraditionalist country act with songs that catered primarily to the American working class. Under RCA's tenure, he recorded five studio albums and a Greatest Hits package. By the later half of the 1990s, however, his sales and chart performance began to decline, and he was dropped from the label's roster. more »
