Lyrics
Closer
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's just me and you and the man in the moon shinin' down
A blanket of stars up above and a quilt on the ground
I've waited so long to get you all alone in the dark
I just want to hold you till I feel the beat of your heart
I wanna get closer closer
Closer than moonlight that your body's wrapped in tonight yeah
Closer to heaven than I've ever been in my life
Before the night's over I wanna get closer
My two aching arms have been longing to hold you this way
These lips have been praying that I'd find the right words to say
I don't want to own you or try to control how you feel
I want you to need me believe me this feeling is real
I wanna get closer closer...
[ guitar ]
Oh closer than moonlight...
Before the night's over I wanna get closer
