Closest Thing to You Songtext
von Caroline Jones

It's a picture that
You would laugh at
Me at a bar just drinking water with extra ice

Though I'm not scared
I wish I cared
A little more about some other those other guys

And I smile in spite of my best efforts to appear as if there's something I'm looking for
Little does the world outside know of the girl I am inside; the girl you are waiting for

There's a million boys; I'd dance the night away, but
If I had my choice, I'd be with you
To express how I feel, there's a million ways
But makin' love seems like the closest thing to true
And I want to be the closest thing to you

Part of the reason
That I'm leavin' this bar
Is that you don't care much if I don't


Somehow your trust
Inspires lust inside my veins
Your love runs deep down inside my bones

And I smile in spite of my best efforts to conceal the fact that I'm anywhere but here
Little does the world outside know of the girl I am inside and the man who dried her tears

There's a million boys; I'd dance the night away, but
If I had my choice, I'd be with you
To express how I feel, there's a million ways
But makin' love seems like the closest thing to true
And I want to be the closest thing to you

Walking home I get this funny feelin, as if
Somehow you are walking next to me
& I turn around just to make sure that I'm not dreamin'
And there you are
And there you'll always be

There's a million boys; I'd dance the night away, but
If I had my choice, I'd be with you
To express how I feel, there's a million ways
But makin' love seems like the closest thing to true
And I want to be the closest thing to you
