MEG, spoken
Now that you're gone, I miss Joe more than ever

YOUNG JOE, spoken
He's closer than you think...

(sung)
He's near to you
Near to you
Though you think he's far away
He's near to you, so near to you
As near as April is to May

Can't you feel him there
In his favorite chair
Staring at the fireplace?
Oh so near to you
Always near to you
Why you might as well be face to face

For it's just as though he were standing as close as I
I know it's hard to imagine, but try

If he's really dear to you
He's near to you
You may be far apart, and yet
If he's in your heart
Really in your heart
How near to you can he get?

MEG
He's near to me, near to me
Even though he's far away
He's near to me, so near to me
As near as April is to May

JOE
If he's really dear to you

MEG
He's dear to me

JOE
He's near to you

MEG
He's near to me

JOE
You may be far apart and yet

MEG
If he's in my heart

JOE
Really in your heart
How near to you

MEG
How near to me

JOE
How near to you

MEG
How near to me

JOE & MEG
Can he get?
