Lyrics

[Chorus]

Darling, if you want me to be closer to you, get closer to me

Darling, if you want me to be closer to you, get closer to me

Darling, if you want me to love, love only you, then love only me

Darling, if you want me to see, see only you, then see only me

[Verse 1]

Oh, there's a line I can't cross over

It's no good for me and it's no good for you

And there's a feeling, deep down inside me

I can't explain it and you're wondering why

Ooh, you say we've been like strangers

But I'm not the others you can wrap 'round your fingers

[Chorus]

Darling, if you want me to be closer to you, get closer to me

Darling, if you want me to be closer to you, get closer to me

Darling, if you want me to love, love only you, then love only me

Darling, if you want me to see, see only you, then see only me

[Verse 2]

There was a time when you would come runnin'

You dropped everything for the touch of your hand in mine

Oh, I was blind and now I regret it

'Cause I can't forget it, it's locked in my mind

And I can't go on living

Day to day wondering if you'll be here tomorrow

People change and you're changing

And I've given you my all, there's no more to borrow

[Chorus]

Darling, if you want me to be closer to you, get closer to me

Darling, if you want me to be closer to you, get closer to me

Darling, if you want me to be closer to you, get closer to, closer, closer

Darling, if you want me to be closer to you, get closer to me

[Outro]

Darling, if you want me to be closer to you, get closer to me

Darling, if you want me to be closer to you, get closer to me

Darling, if you want me to be closer to you, get closer to me

Darling, if you want me to be closer to you, get closer to me

Darling, if you want me to be closer to you, get closer to me

Darling, if you want me to be
