Closer Lyrics by Reuben James

Tunnel Vision

2021

[Intro: Reuben James]
Baby, ooh
Oh, yeah
Ba-doo, yeah, yeah

[Verse 1: Reuben James, Sophie Faith, & Both]
Baby, baby, I believe that you know there are stars in your eyes
That I couldn't help but notice
I wanna take this time to approach, but you took me by surprise
And you already know this
So won't you throw me up a sign?
My heart is on the line
I need you to be mine (Mm, mm-mm)
And I just want you here with me (Oh)
So, baby, if you please

[Chorus: Sophie Faith]
You want to come closer, closer to me
'Cause I got everything you want
I got everything you need, oh-oh, ooh, hoo-ooh

[Verse 2: Reuben James]
I hate to be the one to tell you, baby
I only wanna savour it, I've been thinkin' lately
That I've been waitin' here for the takin'
So go ahead and make me
I just wanna taste it (Huh)
You got me down on my knees
I'd travel overseas (Travel)
To give you what you need
And I just want you here with me
So, baby, if you please

[Chorus: Sophie Faith & Jay Prince]
Won't you come closer, closer to me?
'Cause I got everything you want
I got everything you need, oh (Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah)

[Verse 3: Jay Prince]
Yeah
I know we can make it out alive, we took our time
There ain't no rush, no fight and fuss
I'm from the city where they bust the federales, they don't trust
Look at me and you don't judge
Talkin' peace, you my release
We talkin' like my mother and my father, Sunday taught me
Well, don't kiss and tell
My baby gal
Let's travel, well
Baby, ain't no rush in here, we can take it slowly (Yeah)
Patience is a passion, I don't act, you really know me (Yeah)

[Chorus: Sophie Faith]
Closer, closer to me
I got everything you want, ooh, ooh
I got everything you need
Oh-oh, oh, ooh-hoo
Won't you come closer, closer to me?
'Cause I got everything you want
I got everything you need, oh-oh, ooh, ooh-hoo

[Verse 4: Reuben James & Sophie Faith]
Lil' darling ain't mind, what you doin'?
And I see what you're workin' with, so I just wanna please you (I just wanna say)
And I know that you're the one that I can be with
And I'm not one to say shit, I know I'm your favourite
So we could get out of this place, no time to be complacent
This love's amazin'
And with your style and your grace
I just wanna love you in a thousand different ways
Never did I love you, baby, mm-mm, mm, mm, mm-mm
Makin' you eggs in the mornin' just the way I like it
With a few hashbrowns
Woo, 'cause every day with you feels just like the weekend
And when it gets to seven (When it gets to mornin')
You take me straight to Heaven (Mm, mm-mm)
Not the time to say it (Hoo, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh)
No more messages
You're comin' 'round closer, closer to me
Baby, baby, I know
