Close, ooh
You'll always be by my side
Oh, so close, ooh
I'll love you 'til the day I die

I used to be so happy, but without you here I feel so low
I watched you as you left, but I can never seem to let you go
Oh man, oh man, oh man
I'm so perplexed with just one breath, I'm locked in
Oh man, oh man, oh man
I'm so perplexed, oh, that it's almost shocking, oh

'Cause once upon a time you were my everything
It's clear to see that time hasn't change a thing
'Cause space was just a word made up
By someone who's afraid to get too

Close, ooh
You'll always be by my side
Oh, so close, ooh
I'll love you 'til the day I die

Oh man, oh man
I am not really known for ever being speechless
But now, but now somehow
My words roll off my tongue right onto your lips
Funny how we both end up here, but everything seems alright
I wonder what would happen if we went back and put up a fight, oh
'Cause if I want you, I want you baby
Ain't going backwards, won't ask for space
So what in this world do you think could ever take you off my mind

I will never forget you (oh, oh)
You will always be my side (so close)
From the day that I met you (oh, oh)
I want you close, and close ain't close enough, no
Feeling it, loving it, everything that we do
And all along I knew I had something special with you
But sometimes you just gotta know that these things fall through
I can't hide my connection with you

Close, oh
Oh, so close, oh
I will never want much more
And in my heart I will always be sure
I want you close, oh
You'll always be by my side
'Til the day I die, oh
