George Jones
She’s as Close as I Can Get
[Intro]
She's as close as I can get to lovin' you

[Verse 1]
Her hair should be a little darker
And her eyes should be a deeper blue
She's not perfect, but I'm happy I found her
'Cause she's as close as I can get to loving you

[Chorus]
She doesn't know she's being used
And it would break her heart in two
If she knew that she was playing the part I planned for you
I should be ashamed to love her the way that I do
But she's as close as I can get to loving you

[Verse 2]
You'd approvе of the way that she dressеs
From her earrings to the style of her shoes
I taught her everything I remember
And she's as close as I can get to loving you

[Chorus]
She doesn't know she's being used
And it would break her heart in two
If she knew that she was playing the part I planned for you
I should be ashamed to love her the way that I do
But she's as close as I can get to loving you
[Refrain]
She's as close as I can get to loving you
