[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
I tell myself let no one take her place
To confide in someone
And look at how much I paid?
I want you next to me
Call it telepathy
We drifted into vision
And look at how much we see?
Ahh
Ah ahh

[Chorus]
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
We make each other cry
Livin' in each others lives
And tryin' to make the fantasy come true
I just wanna get closer than close to you, baby
I just wanna get closer than close to you

[Verse 3]
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
Ahh
Ah ahh

[Chorus]
I just wanna get closer than close to you
I know that one way or the other
Any test of my faith will do
I give my heart for you to break
I give my final breath
Nothin' last forever see
We can turn eternity into

[Chorus]
I just wanna get closer than close to you
To the moment you discover
What the best of my love can do
And lovers fall for lovers' friends
We make each other cry
Livin' in each others lives
And tryin' to make the fantasy come true
I just wanna get closer than close to you, baby
I just wanna get closer than close to you

[Outro]
I just wanna get closer than close to you
I just wanna get closer than close to you
(My love)
To the moment you discover
What the best of my love can do?
(My love)
Baby
I just wanna get closer than close to you
I just wanna get closer than close to you
(My love)
I know that one way or the other
Any test of my faith will do
(My love)
Baby
I just wanna get closer than close to you

Bee Gees

The three Gibb brothers were very close as children and spent most of their time together. Barry was born in 1946, and his twin brothers Maurice and Robin were born in 1949. Together, they went on to become one of the most popular bands of the 1970s.

The Bee Gees have sold more than 220 million records worldwide, and functioned as a group almost continuously from 1958 to 2003, when Maurice Gibb suddenly died during a coma.
