Close To You
Tiesto Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wouldn't call it time well spent
Repeating to myself again
Find comfort in an endless stream of moments
I don't even care, about the way I feel today
Because it changes anyway
Something will make me cry or smile
Another picture on my pile
Now I'm standing close to you
It's just something that I do
When I need love to be enough
I wish love could be enough
'Cause there is nothing more appealing
Than the thought that I could be enough

Do you find solace in the sun
Do you consider life as one
Do you believe there is a limit
To how fast a man can run

Someone said you're born alive
Well I don't feel that alive
No I don't feel that alive
I don't feel that alive

Now I' standing close to you
It's just something that I do
When I need love to be enough
I wish love could be enough
'Cause there is nothing more appealing
Than the thought that I could be enough
Enough





I could be enough, whoa

I wouldn't call it time well spent

Repeating to myself again
I keep reminding myself of things I already know


Find comfort in an endless stream of moments
I find peace in the ongoing series of moments


I don't even care, about the way I feel today
I don't mind my current emotional state


Because it changes anyway
As emotional states change frequently, it doesn't matter


Something will make me cry or smile
All emotions will come at some point


Another picture on my pile
Another memory to keep


Now I'm standing close to you
I'm physically close to you now


It's just something that I do
It's a habit I have, it's unconscious


When I need love to be enough
When I need love to be all I need


I wish love could be enough
I desire love to fulfill every need


'Cause there is nothing more appealing
Nothing else could be better


Than the thought that I could be enough
Than the idea of being complete


Do you find solace in the sun
Do you find peace in natural beauty


Do you consider life as one
Do you view life as a unified experience


Do you believe there is a limit
Do you think there is a maximum amount of something


To how fast a man can run
To how quickly one can physically move


Someone said you're born alive
Someone once said being born is being alive


Well I don't feel that alive
I don't feel like I am truly living


No I don't feel that alive
I don't feel like I am truly living

I'm physically close to you now


It's just something that I do
It's a habit I have, it's unconscious


When I need love to be enough

Nothing else could be better

I could be complete

There are many layers to this song. The different instruments used to sync in harmony. This is a symphony. My mind is blown. It’s perfect!
