Close To Love

(album: Tangled Up - 2007)

Dust Dust Dust Dust

Got so close to love
I can almost taste the kill
Barely close enough
But I could not make the deal
Got so close to love
I can almost taste the kill
Barely close enough
But I just can't close the deal

I was snow white til I started to drift
Baby I didn't care, til I saw you there
And your manner made my animal kick
But I just didn't dare
Call me crazy yeah

Everything I ever had to lose
Is standing in the way of me and you
Panic built these walls in front of me
And nothing but my headcan set me free

Man get up
We're gonna start this fire
Tangled up
Because I know I should
Can't get up
Watch the flames go higher
Tangled up
We're gonna need more wood

Got so close to love
I can almost taste the kill
Barely close enough
But I could not make the deal
Got so close to love
I can almost taste the kill
Barely close enough
But I just can't close the deal

Dust Dust Dust Dust

I'll confess I'm in a real big mess
With the guy I love but I can't say yes
Now my only bet is take a plane ride west
'Cos I can't regret what I ain't done yet

Man get up
We're gonna start this fire
Tangled up
Because I know I should
Can't get up
Watch the flames go higher
Tangled up
We're gonna need more wood

Got so close to love
I can almost taste the kill
Barely close enough
But I could not make the deal
Got so close to love
I can almost taste the kill
Barely close enough
But I just can't close the deal

Man with the chemical stare, hands off
Guy with the terrible hair, back off
Dude with the look in your eye, leave it
Man with the beautiful ride, beat it
