Closer

Lyrics by Howard Anshell

 

I’ve been getting

Closer

To you.

(There was no place else I could go …)

Each one

Was just a little bit

More what I was looking for.

Each one

Was just a little bit

More when I was.

Each one

Was just a little bit –

They were little bit more

Like you!

I’ve been waiting in my mind—

I’ve been hiding for such a long time!

But now, I can see it coming;

I can feel it, hear it, taste it coming!

I can only see it from one side, but

You can see it from the other side,

And it’s going to be

Like in the dream—

I’m sure you know what I mean—

You’re a soul;

We make a whole,

And that’s gonna—

It’s gonna take us

Back to the beginning.

The end is gonna take us

Right back where we came!

I’ve been getting

Closer

To you.

(To the truth …)

Each time

I got an answer,

I knew that it was wrong,

But each time

I got an answer

It took me closer—

Got to get closer !

Give me some more light;

Give me some more sound,

So I get closer –

Got to get closer !

You’ve got to take me in your arms—

You’ve got to tell me that you love me;

You’ve got to tell me that you love me,

‘Cause I’ve got to tell you :

I love you .
