Closer Than Close Lyrics
She'll read your mind
She's smart as a whip
She'll suck you dry
But look at how much I dripAt the point of ecstasy
I write a symphony
Of poetry in motion
And leavin' me there to dieI tell myself
Let no one take her place
To confide in someone
And look at how much I paidI want you next to me
Call it telepathy
We drifted into vision
And look at how much we seeAh...
Ah...
I just want to get closer than close to you
To the moment you discoverWhat the best of my love can do
And lovers fall for lover's friends
We make each other cry
Living in each others livesAnd tryin' to make the fantasy come true
But I just want to get closer than close to you, baby
I just want to get closer than close, to you
Your soul is nakedIt tells you what you want
I read your letter
And look at how close I've come
There's more for us to seeIn this philosophy
We both end up in heaven
And look at how close we'd be
Ah...
Ah...I just want to get closer than close to you
I know that one way or the other
Any test of my faith will do
I give my heart for you to breakI give my final breath
When nothing last forever see
What we can turn eternity into
And I just want to get closer than close to you, babyI just want to get closer than close, to you
