Closer
Etana Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

La Ah Ah

You're in the air that I breathe
You're everything I've been waiting for
You brought the key
Unlocked my heart
From the start
I knew you were the one

Heaven sent you to me
Just at the right time
You brought the sunshine in my life
There's no more rain
Only tears of happiness


CHORUS
Closer, closer come a little closer
Rock me in your thoughts until it slows down
Hold me closer
Just a little closer
Give me all night

Closer, closer come a little closer
Rock me in your thoughts until a slow trance
Hold me closer
Just a little closer
Give me all night


Take me places far away
you are my love song
Make me want to have your child
Little angels running all around

What a cross we have to bear
But you know patience rules
I feel you deep down in my soul
When you're old
I will be right next to you

CHORUS

The sweetest love that I've ever known
You showed me just how deep love could be
You brought the sun back in my life
There's no more rain only tears of happiness

CHORUS

Just a little closer




Just a little closer
Oh baby (give me all night)
