Tender – Closer Still lyrics

[Verse 1]
Baby did I go and disappoint you again?
I know when I've been stupid
And you try to hide the fire in your eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
Girl I’ve told you once before
And I can't tell you again
If I left you wanting more
Why would you pretend?

[Chorus]
You tell me you're the best I’ll get
Just don't know how to treat you yet
You pin me down, I'll make you let
Me do what I like, and baby you're mine
Even learned to like the way
I get so close to say your name
And baby we'll learn to ride that wave
You could give it time, you'd learn to be mine

[Verse 2]
In my defense been changed by another
Lost friends and gained a lover
At my expense I hurt and lost a brother
Oh gently being smothered

[Pre-Chorus]
Girl I've told you once before
And I can't tell you again
If I left you wanting more
Why would you pretend?

[Chorus]
You tell me you’re the best I’ll get
Just don't know how to treat you yet
You pin me down, I’ll make you let
Me do what I like and baby you're mine
Even learned to like the way
I get so close to say your name
And baby we'll learn to ride that wave
You could give it time, you'd learn to be mine

[Post-Chorus]
Show me, be my world
I can only feel that push and pull
Bring me closer still
Bring me closer still

[Chorus]
You tell me you’re the best I'll get
Just don't know how to treat you yet
You pin me down, I'll make you let
Me do what I like and baby you're mine
Even learned to like the way
I get so close to say your name
And baby we'll learn to ride that wave
You could give it time
You'd learn to be mine

[Post-Chorus]
Show me, be my world
I can only feel that push and pull
Bring me closer still
Bring me closer still
