Close to You

I look at you across the room
And I know my heart has met its doom
You smile and wave and say "hello"
And I wish it were more, but it isn't so
The time we spend means so much to me
I think we're perfect, but I guess you don't see
Being "just friends" is a disappointing thought
But I guess I'll be happy with what I got

Together is together even if we're friends
And when we're together, I don't want the time to end
Cause since we met I told myself I'd take what I could get

And you don't have to kiss me
And you don't have to hold me
And you don't have to miss me, like I do for you
And you don't have to hug me
And you don't have to love me
And you don't need to want me
I just need to be close to you

I wish I could feel your hand in mine
And I tell myself maybe, just to give it time
I wish I could feel your lips on my lips
But I don't want to lose this friendship

Together is together even if we're friends
And when we're together, I don't want the time to end
Cause since we met I told myself I'd take what I could get

And you don't have to kiss me
And you don't have to hold me
And you don't have to miss me, like I do for you
And you don't have to hug me
And you don't have to love me
And you don't need to want me
I just need to be close to you

And I just wanna be clear
I would love for you to call me dear
But you really need to know
If we're just friends, I won't say no

Together is together even if we're friends
And when we're together, I don't want the time to end
Cause since we met I told myself I'd take what I could get
Woah ohh

And you don't have to kiss me
And you don't have to hold me
And you don't have to miss me, like I do for you, no
And you don't have to hug me
And you don't have to love me
No and you don't need to want me
I just need to be close to you
