| 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 |
