Lutricia McNeal Closer Lyrics

(McNeal/Jay G/Papalexis/Larossi/Benn/Yacoub)
Closer
If I touch the flames
I might get burned, baby
Closer
If I hesitate - will I ever learn
Not to take this love for granted
Lay our loving on the line
'Cause we are on this boat together
And we have to have an open mind
Memories of you like an echoe in my mind
Will I be caught in this trap 'til the end of time
Since you've been gone I've been down
I've been spinning my wheels
Just thinking about what you did to me
Is giving me chills
They say that time
Time is all that I need
That's the price that you have to pay
For a dirty deed
Closer... Visions of us walking side by side in the rain
I want you back in my life, will I see you again
When we were together
No mountains that I couldn't climb
Hard times that I couldn't handle
Nowhere to be found
They say that time
Time is all that I need
That's the price that I have to pay
For a dirty deed
Closer...
"We wrote this one at a time in my life when I was touring
pretty much nonstop. It's about not taking your loved one for
granted. It was meant to be a traditional ballad with strings
and the works, but the crew added some jungle beats and
we decided to cut it this way."
