Closer To You - Liz Phair

I see the things you do Do you think I wander through half-blind?

I see the things you hide

The fear you have inside is nothing new

But I would never want to find out everything about you

Because I would never want to find out

What I thought wasn’t true

Your mind is a place

I don’t need to embrace

But what you’ve got on your heart

Is enough for me to start breaking through

And closer to you

Closer to you

I love you as you are

Near and not too far out of you

I love the way you walk

To hear it when you talk like you do But I would never want to choose

What I like best about you

Because I would never want to spoil that mystery

With a clue

Your mind is a place

I don’t need to embrace

But what you’ve got in your heart

Is enough for me to start

With enough holes in my soul

I don’t need to rock and roll to stay in tune

And be open to you

Open to you

Oh the obviousness of all those Frustrating clues

They wander all around

Black and white, no sound, no improvements

But I see something like TV

With a smell and a choice

When I feel yours and my heart beating

With the wealth of the universe

Your mind is a place

I don’t need to embrace

What you’ve got in your heart

Is enough for me to start

Making your happiness my own

Open up and let me show what I can do When I am closer to you

Closer to you
