So leave your taxi waiting

And turn and close my door

And sit back down where you were sitting

A little closer than before

And when you look that serious

It just makes me want you more

And I've been meaning to tell you

The closer you get, the better I feel

The closer you are, the more I see

Why everyone says that I look happier

When you're around

The closer you get, the better I feel

And yes I know you're nervous

Never seen you so unsure

You haven't touched your food tonight

And you're drinking more and more

And there's no need to hurry

Take your time I'll still be here

And I've been meaning to tell you

The closer you get, the better I feel

The closer you are, the more I see

Why everyone says that I look happier

When you're around, the better I feel

The closer you get, the better you see

The closer you are, the more I see

Why everyone says that I look happier

When you're around

The closer you get, the better I feel

The better I feel

We've been circling for time baby

We're coming down to land tonight

The wait is over and now it's easy

Everything is fine

The closer you get, the better I feel

The closer you are, the more I see

Why everyone says that I look happier

When you're around, the better I feel

The closer you get, the better you see

The closer you are, the more I see

Why everyone says, that I look happier

When you're around, the closer you get

The better I feel
