Standard (EADGBE)

So leave your taxi waiting And turn and close my door

And sit back down where you were sitting A little closer then before

When you look that serious It just makes me want you more

And I've been meaning to tell you

Chorus

The closer you get, the better I feel

The closer you are, the more I see

Why everyone says I look happier

When you're around

The closer you get, the better I feel

2nd VERSE: ( ) x 3

And yes I know you're nervous

Never seen you so unsure

You haven't touched your food tonight

And you're drinking more and more

And there's no need to hurry

Take you're time I'll still be here

And I've been meaning to tell you

Chorus

Bridge

We've been circling for time baby

We're coming down to land tonight

The wait is over and now it's easy

Everything is fine

Chorus

2nd CHORUS:

The closer you get, the better you see

The closer you are, the more I see,

Why everyone says that I look happier

When your around

The closer you get, the better I feel
