Closer to You Lyrics

Falling asleep on the family couch,
Rain falling down on the empty house,
Far too young to be making out.

We woke up late and we both freaked out,
You didn't want your mum and dad to find out,
When you sleep, it looks like you are dead,
And I get so upset, living without you.

Ahh ahhhh I wanna be closer to you,
Ahh ahhhh I wanna be closer to you.

I'll send you valentines written in my blood,
I'll give you poetry written in my head,
Would your life be happier without me,
Maybe I'll just stop living,
I've got a photograph of you inside my head,
I've got your lipstick in a shrine beside my bed,
You're my religion, my death and resurrection,
And we are destined to spend eternity together.

Ahh ahhhh I wanna be closer to you,
Ahh ahhhh I wanna be closer to you,
Ahh ahhhh I wanna be closer to you,
Ahh ahhhh I wanna be closer to you.

Feel free to take me for granted,
I'll be doing the same to you, ohh,
Feel free to take me for granted,
I'll be doing the same to you, ohh,
Feel free to take me for granted,
I'll be doing the same to you, ohh,
Feel free to take me for granted,
I'll be doing the same to you.

For so long... for so long,
What we had can we ever get back,
Innocence of a child and all that,
And they say I've gotta stay away,
I've gotta wait my turn,
I know it's gonna come someday.

Ahh ahhhh I wanna be closer to you,
Ahh ahhhh I wanna be closer to you,
I wanna be closer to you,
I wanna be closer to you,
I wanna be closer to you,
I wanna be closer to you.
