Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Want love?

Get closer

You want love?

Get closer

[Verse 2]

Hold her hand

Be forward

Come on, be a man

Get closer

[Verse 3]

Instead of worryin' about those things you said

Follow your heart and forget your head

Maybe some things will jump out your mouth

Make her notice that you're crazy about her

[Verse 4]

Want love?

Get closer

You want love?

Get closer

[Verse 5]

You make a fuss when her eyes ain't on you

We'll give her something to look forward too

Remember all those other girls who ran

Away from something they didn't understand

[Verse 6]

You want love?

Get closer

You want love?

Get closer

[Verse 7]

(Want love?)

Why you worryin' about those things you said?

(Get closer)

(Want love?)

Follow your heart and forget your head

(Get closer)

(Want love?)

Oh, slide over on the seat

(Get closer)

(Want love?)

She'll give you something that's, oh, so sweet

(Get closer)

(Want love?)

(Get closer)
