Closer By The Hour Lyrics - Dolly Parton

You're the sweetest one I know and I just can't let you go 

I just dream of holding you inside my arms 

I go home each night to stay but I just can't stay away 

And we get closer closer by the hour 

We get closer by the hour though we've tried with all our power 

To stay away from each other's arms 

We get closer by the hour like the bee goes to the flower 

Closer closer by the hour 

We come closer with each kiss and I feel your lips insist 

But I do your will and love you more and more 

Although we know it's wrong we can't stay where we belong 

And we get closer closer by the hour
