Give Me That Closeness
Verse 1:
~ All you boys out there
Who use us girls for our looks
Look what ya done to me
Look what ya done to me
I'm a walking heartbreak
Used to being played
I see it coming
But I don't look away
Chorus:
Give me that closeness
Just for a minute
It don't take too much
I'll jump right in and give it
Yeah, I wanna trust
When you say you'll stay
I wasn't thinking straight
Now it's too late
Verse 2:
What's going through your mind
When you say these things
You're really weak inside
That's why you always lie
When will you stop
Do you too, have afterthoughts?
Are you just that cold?
In need of someone warm to hold
Repeat Chorus:
Give me that closeness
Just for a minute
It don't take too much
I'll jump right in and give it
Yeah, I wanna trust
When you say you'll stay
I wasn't thinking straight
Now it's too late
Reprise:
We've all messed up
Given away too much
Sometimes I just wanna scream
How much do I have to give...
To find love?
That's all I'm looking for
What I'll give you in return
I'm willing to take that risk
If you would just...
Repeat Chorus:
Give me that closeness
Just for a minute
It don't take too much
I'll jump right in and give it
Yeah, I wanna trust
When you say you'll stay
I wasn't thinking straight
Now it's too late
I couldn't turn away ~
