Closer to You Lyrics by The Cross

Mad, Bad, and Dangerous to Know

1990

Wasn't looking for love
But you found me anyway
Like a shot from a gun
You just blew me away
Cos you got the power
And you got control
Ain't got no strength
And I can't fight it all
I'll be what you want me to be
And I'll do what you want me to do
And I'll see what you want me to see
If that's what it takes to get closer to you
Well I'm down on my knees
Cos you got me in chains
So you do what you please
And you drive me insane
Cos you got the power
And you got control
Ain't got no strength
And I can't fight it all
I'll be what you want me to be
And I'll do what you want me to do
And I'll see what you want me to see
If that's what it takes to get closer to you
Hey if that's what it takes
If that's what it takes
If that's what it takes to get closer to you now
I'll be what you want me to be
And I'll do what you want me to do
And I'll see what you want me to see
If that's what it takes to get closer to you
Be what you want me
Do what you want me
I'll see what you want me to see
To get closer to you
Closer to you babe
Closer to you
If that's what it takes to get closer to you
