[Verse 1]

Now I'm thinking maybe I was stoned

I felt my feet lift off the ground

And my heart was screaming

At my bones, I need you closer

[Verse 2]

As he's in the middle of the street

Then I pretend he is mine to keep

Cars are running fast on both sides of his head

His eyes say, closer

[Bridge]

Closer, closer

[Verse 3]

I met him when the sun was down

The bar was closed

We both have had no sleep

My face beneath the streetlamp

It reveals what it is lonely people seek

[Bridge]

Closer, closer

Closer, closer

[Chorus]

And, you're close enough to lose

Close to the point where you know that your mind

It can not choose

Close enough to lose

Close enough to lose

Your heart

[Verse 4]

Now I'm thinking maybe I was stoned

I felt my feet lift off the ground

And my heart was screaming

At my bones, I need you closer

[Bridge]

Closer, closer

[Verse 5]

You met me when the sun was down

And the bar was closed

We both have had no sleep

My face beneath the streetlamp

It reveals what it is lonely people seek

[Bridge]

Closer, closer

Closer, closer

[Chorus]

Then you're close enough to lose

Close to the point where you know that your mind

It can not choose

Close enough to lose

Close enough to lose

Your heart
