[Verse 1: Nick Jonas]
Ah, damn-o, damn-o, damn-o, so perplexed
With just one breath, I'm locked in
Ah, damn-o, damn-o, damn-o, so perplexed
Th-That it's almost shockin'
I know, I know, you know you're scared
Your heart, your mind, your soul, your body, yeah
They won't, they won't, they won't be careful
But I guess that you don't know me

[Pre-Chorus: Nick Jonas]
'Cause if I want you, then I want you, babe
Ain't going backwards, won't ask for space
'Cause "space" was just a word made up by someone
Who's afraid to get too—

[Chorus: Nick Jonas]
Close, ooh-ooh
Oh, so close, ooh-ooh
Want you close, ooh-ooh
'Cause "space" was just a word made up by someone
Who's afraid to get close, ooh
Oh, so close, ooh-ooh
Want you close, ooh-ooh
Oh, I want you close and close, ain't close enough, no

[Verse 2: Tove Lo, Nick Jonas]
Oh, man, oh, man, I am not really known
For ever being speechless (Yeah, yeah, ah)
But now, but now somehow my words roll off my tongue
Right onto your lips, ah (Ah, ah, babe)
I'm keepin' cool while you keep smilin'
Sayin' all the things I'm thinking (I'll say, babe, yeah)
Oh, man, oh, man, I am like you
So I want proof of what you're feeling (Oh-ooh)

[Pre-Chorus: Tove Lo, Nick Jonas]
'Cause if I want you, then I want you, babe
Ain't going backwards, won't ask for space (Going backwards)
'Cause "space" is just a word made up by someone
Who's afraid to get too—

[Chorus: Both, Nick Jonas, Tove Lo]
Close, ooh-ooh (Ooh-ooh)
Oh, so close, ooh-ooh
Want you close, ooh-ooh (Yeah, baby)
'Cause "space" was just a word made up by someone
Who's afraid to get close, ooh-ooh (Ooh-ooh)
Oh, so close, ooh-ooh
Want you close, ooh-ooh (I want you)
Oh, I want you close and close, ain't close enough, no

[Bridge: Nick Jonas, Nick Jonas & Tove Lo]
'Cause if I want you, then I want you, babe
Ain't going backwards, won't ask for space
'Cause "space" was just a word made up by someone
Who's afraid to get too
Close

[Chorus: Both, Tove Lo, Nick Jonas]
Close, ooh-ooh (Close, babe)
Oh, so close, ooh-ooh (Oh, baby)
Want you close, ooh-ooh (Yeah; Baby, yeah)
'Cause "space" was just a word made up by someone
Who's afraid to get close, ooh-ooh (So get close, baby)
Oh, so close, ooh-ooh (Oh, baby; Oh)
Want you close, ooh-ooh (Can you tell me?)
Oh, I want you close and close, ain't close enough, no (No)

[Outro: Both, Tove Lo, Nick Jonas]
Close, ooh-ooh (Yeah, baby)
Close, ooh-ooh (Oh, tell me, baby, what you want)
Close, ooh-ooh (Ooh-ooh)
Oh, I want you close and close, ain't close enough, no
