Closer Lyrics

Closer...x4

Turn the lights off in this place
And she shines just like a star
And I swear I know her face
I just don`t know who you are
Turn the music up in here
I still hear her loud and clear
Like she`s right there in my ear
Telling me that she wants
To own me, to control me
Come closer... (come closer...)
Come closer...

And I just can`t pull myself away
Under her spell I can't break
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
And I just can`t bring myself away
But I don`t want to escape
I just can't stop (I just can't stop)
I just can't stop (I just can't stop)
I just can`t stop

I can feel her on my skin
I can taste her on my tongue
Shes the sweetest taste of sin
The more I get the more I want
She wants to own me...
Come closer...
She says, "Come closer.."

And I just can`t pull myself away
Under her spell I can't break
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
And I just can`t bring myself away
But I don`t want to escape
I just can't stop (I just can't stop)
I just can't stop (I just can't stop)
I just can`t stop

Come closer... x7

I just can`t stop, noo
I just can`t stop, noo
I just can`t stop, noo
I just can`t stop noo...

And I just can`t pull myself away
Under her spell I can't break
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
I just can't stop, I just can't stop
And I just can`t bring myself away
But I don`t want to escape
I just can't stop (I just can't stop)
I just can't stop (I just can't stop)
I just can`t stop

And I just can`t pull myself away
Under her spell I can't break
I just can't stop (I just can't stop)
I just can't stop (I just can't stop)
I just can't stop

Come closer....

the second lyrics are the correct ones, thanks lrkrmo15

this song is about infatuation-to me-and the initial feeling of someone who you are attracted to when they are stuck in your head and all you want is to be around them.

yupp..lrkrmo15's lyrics are right..yayy! =]

i love this song..lol its my ringtone-well one of the many i have-and if my ex would call me and dedicate this song to me i would so go out with him in a heartbeat..ugh i miss him =/

oh well the meaning of this song is pretty self explained..he loves her and cant/doesnt/wont forget about her and how he still wants to be with her. cute song=]

Not my fave Ne-yo song, but it's very catchy somehow. I like more and more, the more I listen to it. Pretty good, I think

this song is about crack... plain and simple it was on VH1

Not Valid

How doesn't that make sense, Lorilie11? Stars usually shine at night in the darkness. And he's comparing her to a star. He doesn't mean she's literally going to shine, it's a metaphor.
Anyway, I love this song. It's so seductive.

It's catchy. I really like it... the lyrics here are a bit off though. This seems a little closer:

I think someone posted the lyrics wrong...arn't they

"Turn the lights off in the place and she shines just like a star"

How is this even possible? gives me the creeps. sorry but ne-yo lost my respect if the lyrics I found for this song are the correct ones.

Cover art for Closer lyrics by Ne-Yo

maybe im wrong..i prob shouldnt talk bout stuff I know nothing about :)

Cover art for Closer lyrics by Ne-Yo

ok--well, I believe the lyrics are totally off..but, I could be wrong. I think instead of "She's the sweetest taste I've seen," I think it's "she's the sweeatest taste of sin," which would make more sense, since the song is obviously about a desire that he shouldn't have. He's full of lust and has become completely consumed by her. He just can't stop--but at the same time he doesn't want to. It's obviously a struggle, but he's weak.

Cover art for Closer lyrics by Ne-Yo

The commented lyrics are correct. I just caught that.

Cover art for Closer lyrics by Ne-Yo

I can't stand this song. It's disturbing! at first I thought I liked it because I liked the message of being closer but after furthur examination- the song sucks.
