The Closer You Get — текст песни (Bonnie Tyler)

(chris rea)

Producers for bonnie: hugh murphy/ ronnie scott/ steve wolfe



The street lights start to come on

I know that its time

Stop what youre doin

Meet those drinkin friends of mine

First guy that called me on the telephone

Said get on down but Im stayin at home



Now I believe in love

I believe that its true

That Im defenseless

When Im lookin at you

Sleepy eyes on an angels face

Dont worry, baby

No ones gonna take your place



*the closer you get the better you look

Throw me a line

The closer you get the more that I see

Well sure have a good time

Now I know what youre thinkin

How do I feel

Well theres no rules in my book

Said the closer you get

Oh the better you took



Keepin one foot on the showroom

One on the side

Ive had some close ones

But Im doin all right

Theres gold on his fingers

It dont mean a thing

Hell do his best

To hear this sweet lady sing

Ive got the time if you got the place

Weve got the know how

If you got the space

Weve got the power, weve got no shame

Come over, baby

Sure do wanna light your flame, you know



* repeat
