Close To You
GAMPER & DADONI Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's a gentleness I've known
Knew it best when it was fading
Trying to find my way back home
Don't you know, there's no escaping

Because I wanted to be loved
I just wanted to get close to you
Because I wanted to be loved
I lost everything I knew

Turned away from all my dreams
Broken down disintegrating
Ignored the signs of all deceit
Couldn't believe, can you blame me?

Because I wanted to be loved
I just wanted to get close to you
Because I wanted to be loved
I lost everything I knew

Didn't see until it all was done
Felt so right to hold someone
What I saw in you was almost true
Brutal what the heart will do

Because I wanted to be loved
I just wanted to get close to you
Because I wanted to be loved
I lost everything I knew

Because I wanted to be loved
I just wanted to get close to you




Because I wanted to be loved
I lost everything I knew

The second verse describes how the person turned away from their dreams and ignored the signs of deceit because they just wanted to be loved so badly. The third verse describes the realization that they didn't see what was happening until it was already done, and that holding someone felt right even if it was the wrong person. The chorus repeats that the person's desire for love caused them to lose everything they knew.

Lyrics:

There’s a gentleness I’ve known,
Knew it best when it was fading,
Trying to find my way back home,
Don’t you know, there’s no escaping.

Because I wanted to be loved,
I just wanted to get close to you,
Because I wanted to be loved,
I lost everything I knew.

Turned away from all my dreams,
broken down disintegrating,
Ignored the signs of all deceit,
couldn’t believe - can you blame me?

Because I wanted to be loved,
I just wanted to get close to you,
Because I wanted to be loved,
I lost everything I knew.

Didn’t see until it all was done,
Felt so right to hold someone,
what i saw in you was almost true,
brutal what the heart will do…

Because I wanted to be loved,
I just wanted to get close to you,
Because I wanted to be loved,
I lost everything I knew.
