So leave your taxi waiting
And turn and close my door
And sit back down where you were sitting
A little closer than beforeAnd when you look that serious
It just makes me want you more
And I've been meaning to tell youThe closer you get, the better I feel
The closer you are, the more I see
Why everyone says that I look happier when you're around
The closer you get, the better I feelAnd yes I know you're nervous
Never seen you so unsure
You haven't touched your food, tonight
And you're drinking more and moreAnd there's no need to hurry
Take your time I'll still be here
And I've been meaning to tell youThe closer you get, the better I feel
The closer you are, the more I see
Why everyone says that I look happier when you're around
The better I feelThe closer you get, the better you see
The closer you are, the more I see
Why everyone says that I look happier when you're around
The closer you get, the better I feel
The better I feelWe've been circling for time baby
We're coming down to land tonight
The wait is over and now it's easy
Everything's fineThe closer you get, the better I feel
The closer you are, the more I see
Why everyone says that I look happier
When you're around, the better I feelThe closer you get, the better you see
The closer you are, the more I see
Why everyone says that I look happier when you're around
The closer you get, the better I feel
