In the beginning, you were a stranger
But my outlines were drawn to the danger
And once I had a taste of your flavor
Mmm, closer

So I'm keeping my eyes off you
When she put her hands on you
But later that night, we do it again
I'm keeping my mind off you
When she got her body on you
Later that night, we do it again

Closer, pulling me closer
Closer, I want you closer
Tell her, tell her that it's over
Now we're closer, closer

I think we both know that you should tell her
'Cause my perfume is still on your sweater
This is the last time, it's for the better
Mmm, closer

What can I do
When every part of me is reaching for you
With no apology?
I know everybody hurts
But this space, it makes it worse
What can I do to have you again?

Closer, pulling me closer
Closer, I want you closer
Tell her, tell her that it's over
Now we're closer, closer

So I'm keeping my eyes off you
When she put her hands on you
But later that night, we do it again
I'm keeping my mind off you
When she got her body on you
Later that night, we do it again
Closer, pulling me closer

Closer, pulling me closer (pulling me, ah)
Closer, I want you closer (I want you closer)
Tell her (tell her), tell her that it's over
Now we're closer, closer

Tell her, tell her that it's over
Now we're closer, closer
