Jars of Clay - Closer Well you thought you let go but youre still hanging on Mother Earth slowing down shes still spinning around and we are getting dizzy Ill drop out of the race for more personal space Cos the rockets were in get so cold, and I miss your skin Its just how Im feeling If you need more love well youve got to get close to me If you want my love well youve got to get closer to me. No unreachable itch, If you hemorrhage Ill stitch You are tears, Im a cheek. Im a pail on your boat with slow leaks Out to sea for weeks If you want my love well youve got to get close to me If you need my love well youve got to get closer to me Oooo if you want my love I dont understand why we cant get close enough I want your kite strings tangled in my trees all wrapped up Well, I dont understand why we cant get close enough Ill be the comets that are falling from the sky you light up (light up)(?) Youre my shirt iron on. Im the tick, Youre the bomb Youre the L and the V, Im the O and the E Am I speaking clearly? If you want my love well youve got to get close to me. Oooo, if you want my love I dont understand why we cant get close enough I want your kite strings tangled in my trees all wrapped up Well, I dont understand why we cant get close enough Ill be the comets that are falling from the sky you light up Cos I dont understand why we cant get close enough I miss the chills in my spine every time that we touch
