Close to you I wanna be close to you So I can feel your presence Rest my hand inside your hand Close to you So you can hear my heart But why is it so hard When our worlds just don't collide Ooohh Wish I could pretend I didn't need you Thoughts are haunting me inside my head I cant unplug them How do I unplug them boy Lightning strikes when I you so happy Maybe I was born to be so lonely for so long Can someone tell me what is wrong Ho ho hollow baby I feel so hollow baby You're out of reach but I just want more, want more Close to you I wanna be close to you So I can feel your presence Rest my hand inside your hand Close to you So you can hear my heart But why is it so hard When our worlds just don't collide Ooohh I thought that emotions are Taking a forever nap inside me But I guess I was wrong Cus' I wana scream and shout When I hopelessly observe How you and her are making out Cus I'm not steel and wires I deserve to love and to be loved Love and to be loved Ho ho hollow baby I feel so hollow baby You're out of reach but I just want more, want more Close to you I wanna be close to you So I can feel your presence Rest my hand inside your hand Close to you So you can hear my heart But why is it so hard when our worlds just don't collide Ooohh You oh baby you Oh close to you I wanna be close to you I wanna be, wanna be, wanna be, wanna be Close to you Wanna be, wanna be, wanna be Close to you
