Closer by the Hour Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You're the sweetest one I know
And I just can't let you go
I just dream of holding you inside my arms
I go home each night to stay
But I just can't stay away
And we get closer, closer by the hour
[Chorus]
We get closer by the hour
Though we tried with all our power
To stay away from each other's arms
We get closer by the hour
Like the bee goes to the flower
Closer, closer by the hour
[Verse 2]
We come closer with each kiss
And I feel your lips insist
That I do your will and love you more and more
Although we know it's wrong
We can't stay where we belong
And we get closer, closer by the hour
[Chorus]
We get closer by the hour
Though we tried with all our power
To stay away from each other's arms
We get closer by the hour
Like the bee goes to the flower
Closer, closer by the hour
You're the sweetest one I know
And I just can't let you go
I just dream of holding you inside my arms
I go home each night to stay
But I just can't stay away
And we get closer, closer by the hour
[Chorus]
We get closer by the hour
Though we tried with all our power
To stay away from each other's arms
We get closer by the hour
Like the bee goes to the flower
Closer, closer by the hour
[Verse 2]
We come closer with each kiss
And I feel your lips insist
That I do your will and love you more and more
Although we know it's wrong
We can't stay where we belong
And we get closer, closer by the hour
[Chorus]
We get closer by the hour
Though we tried with all our power
To stay away from each other's arms
We get closer by the hour
Like the bee goes to the flower
Closer, closer by the hour
