As I stood and said goodbye
                              With a lump in my throat
                            Couldn't bear the hurt inside
                            As I found your foolish note

                            While I understand your pain
                           I could see what you've to gain
                                By leaving me alone
                          Why won't you come back home

                       But your love whispers through my life
                           And I can't fake the pain inside

                        If you'd only let me get close to you
                       Oh girl, I'd feel the world's at my feet
                  And I'd know that all my dreams have come true
                                 For me and for you
                          Just wait and believe, you'll see
                             I want to get close to you

                                    Close to you
                                   So close to you
                                    Close to you

                               Well the road was long
                           And my tears have all dried up
                          Because the distance we shared
                               Was an enemy of love

                              I got my bag on my back
                              And my coat in my hand
                            I'm gonna take this distance
                              Unto another man's land

                       But your love whispers through my life
                           And I can't fake the pain inside

                                      CHORUS

                                    Close to you
                                   So close to you
                                    Close to you

                             I want to get close to you

                                    Close to you
                                   So close to you
                                    Close to you

                                   So close to you
                                    Close to you
                                   So close to you
                                    Close to you
