The closer I get to you
The more you make me see
By giving me all you've got (tell me more)
Ooh, yeah, 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 (ooh-ooh)
The way you make me feel
Hey, hey, hey
And ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Lying here next to you, oh, huh
Time just seems to fly, yeah
Needing you more and more, more and more
Let's give love a try (let's give love a try) (I wanna try more)
Sweeter than sweeter love grows
And heaven's there for those
Who fool the tricks of time
With hearts in love will find
True love
In a special way, way, way
The closer I get (the closer I get) to you, baby
The more you make me see (the more you make me see)
By giving me what you've got, oh, yeah
Your love captured me
Oh, over and over again
I try to tell myself that we
Could never be more than friends
When all the while inside, I knew this was real (got to be real)
Got to be real
The way you make me feel (you know, you know, you know)
My baby, my baby, my baby, my love, my love, my love, my love (woo)
Yeah (yeah), yeah (yeah)
(Come closer love) come a little closer so we can see into the eyes of love
I wanna see into the eyes of love
(Come closer love) just a little a closer let me speak to you, I wanna softly tell you something
Here I am, he's my love, I just want you to
(Come closer love)
Come a little closer, let me whisper in your ear 'cause I wanna tell you something
I wanna whisper in your ear so soft
(So, come closer love) move on in real close so we can celebrate
The way we feel about each other's lovin'
Wanna tell you words, words of love
