[Intro]

Closer 4x

[Verse]

Turn the lights off in this place

And she shines just like a star

And I swear I know her face

I just don't know who you are

Turn the music up in here

I still hear her loud and clear

Like she's right there in my ear

Telling me

That she wants to own me

To control me

Come closer [x3]

[Chorus]

And I just can't pull my self away

Under her spell I can't break

I just can't stop [x4]

And i just can't bring myself away

But I don't want to escape

I just can't stop [x4]

[Verse]

I can feel her on my skin

I can taste her on my tounge

She's the sweetest taste of sin

The more I get the more I want

She wants to own me

Come closer

She says come closer

(Repeat Chorus)

C Em

Come Closer [x7]

C Em

I just can't stop no [x4]

(Repeat Chorus)

And I just can't pull myself away

Under her spell I can't break

I just can't stop [x5]

Come Closer
