Close But No Cigar Lyrics

The song Close But No Cigar is performed by Thomas Dolby in the album named Astronauts & Heretics in the year 1992 .



You came close
Close but no cigar
You didn't miss by far
You know you came this close
Close but no cigar

Some people sing love songs
Everybody's got one
This isn't my love song
It's more like my love gone wrong song...

She came to breakfast
And stayed a week
But the lie detectors
Broke down each time she tried to speak
Broke down when she said :
