Close

I don't know what got me so intrigued
Your curly hair or music expertise
Your fascination for trying all these new things
The way you made me feel like an old friend
The way you made it clear that I wasn't
The fact we shared the exact same taste in music

So we listened to our favourite singer
And we filled the air with smoke
And then your hands found mine
And our bodies intertwined
Longing to feel closer than close
Longing to feel closer than close

I don't know what got me so involved
Your smile, your stories or your mismatched clothes
The way you'd crack my knuckles
As a way of saying good morning
Exploring every corner of this town
Or spending a whole day just lying 'round
Yeah, wasting time with you was always far from boring

So we buy tickets to see our favourite singer
And I'm trying to keep myself composed
Cos I know it's not a big deal
I'm not head over heels
But I think I'm pretty close
Yeah, I think I'm pretty close

Oooh
Aaah
Oooh

And I don't know what got you so detached
The distance or what would happen when you came back
Your fear of commitment
Or mine of rejection
I wonder if we'd just said how we felt
Would it have changed anything
Would it have helped
Would we have put our rules aside
And been the exception

So we go to see our favourite singer
Even managed to stand in the first few rows
But I know our hearts
Couldn't be further apart
Even though we were standing so close
Even though we were standing so close

Oooh
Aaah
