Come a little closer,
Seems now that I can hardly see
Seems like my life was so much easier
When you were closer to me.
I called you my brother
We would find love as friends
But it seem that the dream must have ending
Always never mean to be
Ohh, rolling now to right
I fall at sleep at night
I feel like I'm running for my life
Harder to speak,
Harder to dream without you, baby
Come a little closer
Love is all I believe about you, baby
Ooooh,come a little closer
Love is all I believe about you, baby
Shall I call myself???
Saying that I'm a imagine????
Shall ii give up from my wishes,
And all of my visions, and all of my dreams?
Ooh ooh it's so hard to find another love,
Don't walk on into the aveneus.
Each road I take, they all lead me back to you
Ohh, rolling now to right
I fall at sleep at night
I feel like I'm running, running from my life
Herder to speak,
Harder to dream without you, baby
Come a little closer
Love is all I believe about you, baby
Ooooh,come a little closer
Love is all I believe about you, baby
