It's pouring down like rain, ain't no denying it baby
And now it's started a flame
Oh gir,l you got me going insane in a good way
Can't get you off of my brain, ain't that a shame

If there's just one thing that I gotta do
Is wrap my arms around you
And hold you close and never let you go

Can I get closer, can I get closer
Can I get closer, closer to you
Can I wipe away your tears, wipe away your fears
Be the man that you need me to be
Can I get closer, closer to you

Now baby, I've been thinking 'bout us
And I just don't understand
How God can make a woman so beautiful
So perfect, for a man

'Cause when I wake up in the morning and I think about your face
No one in this world could ever take your place
God sent you to me and it's meant to be, baby, oohh

If there's just one thing that I gotta do
Is wrap my arms around you
And hold you close and never let you go

Can I get closer, can I get closer
Can I get closer, closer to you
Can I wipe away your tears, wipe away your fears
Be the man that you need me to be
Can I get closer, closer to you

And now I'm thinking to myself what is going on
'Cause it's to good to be true
But then I remember there's a God up there saying
Son this ones for you

So can I get closer, ooh, can I get close to you baby
Can I get closer, closer to you
Can I wipe away your tears, wipe away your fears
Be the man that you need me to be
Can I get closer, closer to you
Can I get closer, closer to you, hmmm
