Close Lyrics by Westlife

Coast to Coast

2000

[Intro]
Oh, oh yeah

[Verse 1]
Across the miles, it's funny to me
How far you are and how near you seem to be
I could talk all night just to hear you breathe
I could spend my life just living this dream
You're all I'll ever need

[Chorus]
You give me strength
You give me hope
You give me someone to love, someone to hold
When I'm in your arms, I need you to know
I've never been, never been, this close

[Verse 2]
With all the loves I used to know
I kept my distance, I never let go
But in your arms I know I'm safe
Cause I've never been held
And I've never been kissed in this way, oh
You're all I'll ever need
You're all I'll ever need

[Chorus]
You give me strength
You give me hope
You give me someone to love, someone to hold
When I'm in your arms, I need you to know
I've never been, never been, this close

[Bridge]
Close enough to see its true
Close enough to trust in you
Close enough that many words can't say, yeah
And well
When I'm in your arms, I need you to know
I've never been, never been, this close

[Chorus]
You give me strength
You give me hope
You give me someone to love, someone to hold
When I'm in your arms, I need you to know
I've never been, never been, this close

[Outro]
Oh no, I swear
I've ever been, never been, this close
