[Verse 1]
How many times can you turn away
You fall in love and then love falls away
You turn out the love when you turn out the lights
You hit the heavens when you hit the heights
How can I turn off the flame you know how it kills me

[Chorus]
Every time you say love is gone away, I get closer
It’s a give and take every time we break, I get closer
You get closer too

[Verse 2]
I love you baby till death due us part
If love’s on a man why not un-break my heart
You start so many things so why not let’s dance
2 times in love or a one time romance
How can I turn off the flame you know how it kills me

[Chorus]
Every time you say love is gone away, I get closer
It’s a give and take every time we break, I get closer
You get closer too

[Verse 3]
And I don’t know why we fight
What’s wrong with always bein right
It’s always those damnedest things
Can angels fly on broken wings
And every night when I’m alone in bed
I still smell your perfume
Then I wake up and I swear, I swear
I still remember
[Chorus]
Every time you say love is gone away, I get closer
It’s a give and take every time we break, I get closer
You get closer too
