[Intro: Barry Gibb]
"Closer Than Close"

[Verse 1: Maurice Gibb]
She'll read your mind, she's smart as a whip
She'll suck you dry, but look at how much I drip?
At the point of ecstasy
I write a symphony of poetry in motion
And leavin' me there to die
I tell myself let no-one take her place
To confide in someone
And look at how much I paid?

[Pre-Chorus: Maurice Gibb]
I want you next to me
Call it telepathy, we drifted into vision
And look at how much we see

[Chorus: Bee Gees & Maurice Gibb]
(Ah, ah-ah)
I just wanna get closer than close to you
I know that one way or the other, any test of my faith will do
And lovers fall for lovers' friends
Wе make each other cry
Livin' in еach other's lives
Tryna make the fantasy come true
I just wanna get closer than close to you
[Verse 2: Maurice Gibb]
Your soul is naked, it tells you what you want
I read your letter, and look at how close I've come
There's more for us to see in this philosophy
We both end up in Heaven
And look at how close we'd be

[Chorus: Bee Gees & Maurice Gibb]
(Ah, ah-ah)
I just wanna get closer than close to you
I know that one way or the other, any test of my faith will do
Give my heart for you to break
Give my final breath
Nothin' last forever, see
We can turn eternity into

[Outro: Bee Gees & Barry Gibb]
I just wanna get closer than close to you (Ah-ah)
(My love)
In the moment you discover what the best of my love can do (My love)
Baby, I just wanna get closer than close to you (My love)
And know that one way or the other, any test of my faith will do (Ah)
Baby, I just wanna get closer than close to you
