The Closest Thing to Love (I’ve Ever Seen)
[Verse 1]
You never give me all the love a woman craves
'Cause there's a part of youth you seem to want to save
I must admit you're not the man of my dreams
But you're the closest thing to love I've ever seen
[Verse 2]
You're not the kind of man I always hoped to find
But when I'm in your arms I never really mind
'Cause there's a feeling that has taken hold of me
And it's the closest thing to love I've ever seen
[Bridge]
Why should I go looking for somebody new
The closеst thing to love I've seen is you
[Verse 3]
I'd waited for your touch to еnd this burning fire
But your love always leaves a lot to be desired
Guess there can never be enough of you for me
'Cause you're the closest thing to love I've ever seen
