- Closer Than Friends Lyrics / with translationsIf you don’t know how I feel for you
It’s time I let all feelings show
I love you, and I’ll never let you go, no baby
Right now we’re just friends
But I pray some day you surrender
To you so tender, I won’t push you
As long as you know that my love is true
Get closer to you, baby
Closer than just friends
I want to get closer to you, baby
Yeah, closer than just friends
How about you, how about you
It’s hard to explain when you’re close to me
I get a warm sensation inside
I can’t deny this, I want to try it
Each and every time you come by
Girl, I don’t wanna lose your love
By putting my cards on the table
You know I’m thankful for what we have
But I have feelings inside
They’re so strong I can’t hide
Get closer to you, baby
I want to get closer than just friends
Get closer to you, baby
Yeah, closer than just friends
How about you
(I know you’re probably thinking that you’ve heard this so many times before. But girl, when you’re here, I want you to stay, and when you’re gone, I want you even more every day)
Girl, I don’t wanna lose your love
By putting my cards on the table
You know I’m thankful for what we have
But I have feelings inside
They’re so strong I can’t hide
Get closer to you, baby
Closer than just friends
Get closer to you, baby
Closer than just friends
Oh, baby, closer than just friends
How about you, how about you
My baby, my baby, oh
Dear lady, closer than just friends
Me and you, I want to, how about you, oh
There’s nothing I won’t do to get close to you, oh baby
Closer, my baby
Nothing I won’t do to get close to you, ooh, baby, yeah
It’s time I let all feelings show
I love you, and I’ll never let you go, no baby
Right now we’re just friends
But I pray some day you surrender
To you so tender, I won’t push you
As long as you know that my love is true
Get closer to you, baby
Closer than just friends
I want to get closer to you, baby
Yeah, closer than just friends
How about you, how about you
It’s hard to explain when you’re close to me
I get a warm sensation inside
I can’t deny this, I want to try it
Each and every time you come by
Girl, I don’t wanna lose your love
By putting my cards on the table
You know I’m thankful for what we have
But I have feelings inside
They’re so strong I can’t hide
Get closer to you, baby
I want to get closer than just friends
Get closer to you, baby
Yeah, closer than just friends
(I know you’re probably thinking that you’ve heard this so many times before. But girl, when you’re here, I want you to stay, and when you’re gone, I want you even more every day)

Get closer to you, baby
Closer than just friends
Oh, baby, closer than just friends
How about you, how about you
My baby, my baby, oh
