[Verse 1: Henry]
I was drunken and distorted
By the fashion in your eyes
And the crimson made disguises
And each time I cross the border

Closer, closer to me
Closer, closer, closer to me

Ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ah-ah
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ah-ah
[Outro: Henry]
Closer, closer, closer to me
I'll bring you closer
Closer, closer to me
To me
