She'll read your mind, she's smart as a whip

She'll suck you dry, but look at how much I drip

At the point of ecstasy I write a symphony

Of poetry in motion and leavin me there to die

I tell myself let no one take her place

To confide in someone and look at how much I paid

I want you next to me, call it telepathy

We drift into vision and look how much we see

Ah....ah....

I just want to get closer than close to you

To the moment you discover

What the best of my love can do

And lovers fall for lovers friends

We make each other cry

Living in each others lives

And trying to make the fantasy come true

But, I just want to get closer than close to you, baby

I just want to get closer than close to you

Your soul is naked it tells you what it wants

I read your letter and look at how close I've come

There's more for us to see in this philosophy

We both end up in heaven

And look at how close we'd be

Ah...ah...

I just want to get closer than close to you

I know that one way or another

Any test of my fate will do

I give my heart for you to break

I give my final breath

When nothing lasts forever see

What we can turn eternity into

And I just want to get closer than close to you, baby

I just want to get closer than close to you
