It's just me and you and the man in the moon shining down
A blanket of stars up above, we're curled on the ground
I've waited so long to get you all alone in the dark
I just want to hold you 'til I feel the beat of your heart

I want to get closer, closer
Closer than moonlight that your body's wrecking tonight
Closer to heaven than I've ever been in my life
Before the night's over, I want to get closer

My two aching arms have been longing to hold you this way
My lips have been praying that I'd find the right words to say
I don't want to own you or try to control how you feel
I want you to need me
Believe me, this feeling is real

I want to get closer, closer
Closer than moonlight that your body's wrecking tonight
Closer to heaven than I've ever been in my life
Before the night's over, I want to get closer

Closer than moonlight that your body's wrecking tonight
Closer to heaven than I've ever been in my life
Before the night's over, I want to get closer
Before the night's over, I want to get closer
Closer
Closer
