"Where can I go, what can I do?
When you're gone, baby I'll be blue
How can I live, without a reason?
When you're gone there will be no seasons

Oh, I wanna be close to you

How can I sleep, how can I dream,
If you're not there next to me?
There will be no warmth in our old bedroom
If I lie alone with a ghost of you

Oh, I wanna be close to you
Oh, I wanna be close to you

When you go I will follow behind
Like an old hound dog, like the passing of time
How I live when you are away
My eyes will be blind if your light has faded

Like thorns have roses, like thunder has rain
I need your beauty to soften my pain
Who will I kiss, who will I hold?
When I am gray, when I am old

Oh, I wanna be close to you
Oh, I wanna be close to you"
