Lyrics

[Intro]

Closer

Closer

Closer

Closer

Woo!

[Verse 1]

Turn the lights off in this place

And she shines just like a star

And I swear I know her face

I just don't know who you are

[Verse 2]

Turn the music up in here

I still hear her loud and clear

Like she's right there in my ear

Tellin' me that she wants to own me

To control me

[PreChorus]

Come closer

Come closer

[Chorus]

And I just can't pull myself away

Under her spell, I can't break

I just can't stop, I just can't stop

I just can't stop, I just can't stop

[Chorus]

And I just can't break myself away

But I don't want to escape

I just can't stop, I just can't stop

I just can't stop, I just can't stop

I just can't stop

[Verse 3]

I can feel her on my skin

I can taste her on my tongue

She's the sweetest taste of sin

The more I get, the more I want

[PreChorus]

She wants to own me

Come closer (Closer)

She says come closer

Hey

[Chorus]

And I just can't pull myself away

Under her spell, I can't break

I just can't stop, I just can't stop

I just can't stop, I just can't stop

[Chorus]

And I just can't break myself away

But I don't want to escape

I just can't stop, I just can't stop

I just can't stop, I just can't stop

I just can't stop

[Bridge]

Come closer

Come closer, come closer

Come closer, come closer

Come closer, come closer

[Bridge]

I just can't stop, no, whoa

I just can't stop, no, whoa (Just can't stop it, no, no)

I just can't stop, no, whoa (Just can't stop it, no)

I just can't stop, no (No, no, no, no)

[Chorus]

And I just can't pull myself away

Under her spell, I can't break (Can't break)

I just can't stop, I just can't stop (Said, I just can't stop)

I just can't stop, I just can't stop (Said that I just can't stop)

[Chorus]

And I just can't break myself away (Break myself, break myself)

But I don't want to escape

I just can't stop, I just can't stop (Said that I just can't stop)

I just can't stop, I just can't stop, I just can't stop (Oh, said that I just can't stop)

[Outro]

And I just can't pull myself away

Under her spell, I can't break

I just can't stop, I just can't stop

I just can't stop, I just can't stop

I just can't stop (Come closer)
