Street lights start to come on
|
I know that it's time
|
Stop what you're doing
|
Meet those drinking friends of mine
|
First lady call me on the telephone
|
She said 'Get out and die young but I'm staying at home'
|
Now I believe in love, I believe that it's true
|
Know I'm defenceless when I look into blue
|
Sleepy eyes down an angel's face
|
Don't worry honey no-one's gonna take your place
|
|
The closer you get, the better you look
|
Throw me a line
|
'Cos the closer you get, the more that I see
|
We'll sure have a good time
|
I know what you're thinking, well how do I feel?
|
We'll there's no rules in my book
|
Except the closer you get, the better you look
|
|
Keep one foot in the showroom, one out of sight
|
Girl I've had some close ones but I'm doing all right
|
Gold on her fingers don't mean a thing
|
He'll do his best to hear that sweet lady sing
|
Now I got the time if you got the place
|
We've got the know how and you got the face
|
We got the power, we got no shame
|
Come over baby, I sure do wanna light your flame
|
'Cos the closer you get, the better you look
|
Throw me a line
|
The closer you get, the more that I see
|
We'll sure have a good time
|
I know what you're thinking, well how do I feel?
|
We'll there's no rules in my book
|
Except the closer you get, the better you look
|
