Paroles
The closer I get to you
The closer I get to you
The more you make me see
By giving me all you've got
Your love has captured me
Woah
Over and over again
I try to tell myself that we
Could never be more than friends
All the while inside I knew it was real
The way you make me feel
Lying here in your arms
Time just seems to fly
Needing you more and more
Let's give love a try
Oh woah oh
Sweeter and sweeter love grows
And heaven's there for those (Heaven's there for those)
Who fool the tricks of time
With hearts of love they find true love
In a special way
My baby
Oh my sugar
I wanna be closer to you, baby
Your love has captured me, yeah
Over and over again
I try to tell myself that we
Could never be more than friends
And all the while inside
I knew it was real (So real)
The way you make me feel
The closer I get to you
Feeling comes over me
Pulling closer
Sweet is the gravity
Pulling closer
Sweet is the gravity
Closer that I get to you
So right, so nice
Closer that I get to you
So sweet looking like love
Closer that I get to you
So right looking like love to me
Closer I get to you (Come on)
So right, so nice
Closer that I get to you
So right looking like love to me
