Closer Lyrics - Singles - Peter Himmelman

I went out in the street for a walk in the night 

Had to loosen my head, it's been wound too tight 

I've been standing on the edge after picking a fight with you 

Sometimes my world seems so damn small 

I can't think of nothing 'cept for me at all 

And my thoughts surround me like a prison wall, it's true 

I wanna get closer to you now 

I wanna get closer to you now 

It takes all my strength to slow myself down 

My thoughts are screaming, I can't hear a sound 

Sometimes I wish there was no one around but you 

Oh, tell me you know what I'm talking about 

Sometimes you're the sail like confusion and doubt 

And then it hurts so bad, you just wanna shout, "I'm through" 

I wanna get closer to you now 

I wanna get closer to you now 

I wanna get closer to you now 

I wanna get closer to you now 

Please forgive these things I might've said 

You see they come from my frustration, not my head 

And the last thing that I wanna do 

Is create a distance between me and you 

I wanna get closer to you now 

I gotta get closer to you now 

I wanna get closer to you now 

I gotta get closer to you now 

Well, there seem to be two states of mind 

One is visionary, the other blind 

And the best that we can hope to find 

Is to meet somewhere in between 

Well, the night air has pulled me back a bit 

Just when I was about to quit, trying to get a candle lit 

That lets me see what can't be seen 

I wanna get closer to you now 

I wanna get closer to you now 

I wanna get closer to you now 

I wanna get closer to you now 

I gotta get closer to you now 

I wanna get closer to you now 

I wanna get closer to you now
