|
closer than close |
|
she 'll read your mind |
|
she's smart as a whip |
|
she'll suck you dry |
|
but look at how much I drip |
|
at the point of ecstasy |
|
I write a symphony |
|
of peotry in motion |
|
and leavein' me there to die |
|
I tel l myself |
|
let no one take her place |
|
to confide in someone |
|
and look at how much i paid |
|
i want you next to me |
|
call it teltpathy |
|
we drifted into vision |
|
and look at how much we see |
|
ah-- |
|
I just wanna get closer than close to you |
|
and i know that one way or the other |
|
any test of my faith will do |
|
and lovers fall for lovers' friends |
|
we make each other cry |
|
living in each other lives |
|
and rtyin' to make the fantasy come true |
|
but i just wanna get closer than close to you, baby |
|
i just wanna get closer than close to you |
|
your soul is naked |
|
it tells you what you want |
|
i read your letter |
|
and look at how close i've come |
|
there's more for us to see |
|
in this philosophy |
|
we both end up in heaven |
|
and look at how close we'd be |
|
any test of my faith will do |
|
i give my heart for you to break |
|
i give my final breath |
|
when nothing last forever see |
|
what we can't turn eternity into |
|
and I just wanna get closer than close to you |
|
to the moment you discover |
|
what the best of my love can do |
