(closer, closer)
Maybe I just didn't love you enough for
Maybe I held back too much
Everything seems to fall apart
Shortly after we made our start
I guess that I didn't love you well
Won't you let me get close to you, baby
Won't you please, please say that you will
Just come on and (let me get close to you, baby)
I got to show you my love is truly real
Whoa, oh
Maybe I just didn't reach your heart
Or maybe I just didn't do my part
I couldn't see where I went wrong
Until you left me and I was all alone
I'll make it all up to you, ooh
If you let me get close to you, baby
A little bit (closer), a little bit (closer)
Just come on and let me get close to you, baby
I got to show you my love is truly real
Truly real
E-e-e-everything
Everything, everything seems to fall apart
Shortly after we made our start, baby
I'll make it all up to you, ooh
(If you) If you let me get close
(To you, baby) Oh darling, darling, darling please
(Closer) Oh oh yeah, oh oh yeah
(Closer) I just want you to, baby
(Let me get close to you, baby)
I got to show you my love, I got to
(Show you my love is for real)
Show you my love (ooh), baby
(Let me get close) Please just one more chance
(To you, baby) Oh darling, darling, darling please
(Closer) Oh close
(Closer) Please...
(Let me get close) Let me
(To you, baby) Let me
