CLOSER AND CLOSER
©JMA 1998

Four o?clock in the afternoon, I see the hours awaiting
Put away the day, sit beside the night
I?ve got a good book to lose myself in
And get all my dreaming through
Or maybe I?ll pretend that I?m lying next to you.

Six a.m. and I?m up again, I?m trying to shake off all the darkness
Silence shouts out loud in this empty room
But there?s a space there between the curtains
Where I can see the blue
The sky is bright. I get this feeling
I?m gonna find you soon.

Closer and closer
I?m losing all control
And there?s nothing that I wouldn?t do for your hand to hold.
Closer and closer
No telling what I?ll do
As long as there?s a chance that you?ll love me too.

In the dusking of daylight hours, we feel the atmosphere
Take my eyes inside your own and then you draw me near.
You know I?ve heard them talk of destiny
And all that the moon can do
Fantasy?s are getting real for me
Are they real for you?

Closer and closer
I?m losing all control
And there?s nothing that I wouldn?t do for your hand to hold.
Closer and closer
No telling what I?ll do
As long as there?s a chance that you?ll love me too.

There was a time, in the afternoon, I felt the hours awaiting
Now the day melts softly into night.
I?ve got a good love to lose myself in
And make all my dreams come true.
And I?ll never have to pretend that
I?m lying next to you.

Closer and closer
I?m losing all control
And there?s nothing that I wouldn?t do for your hand to hold.
Closer and closer
No telling what I?ll do
As long as there?s a chance that you?ll love me too.
Now that I?m finally getting close to you.
