Lyrics

(Okay)
(I don't know, um)
(I'll go, guess I'll speak to you later)
Can't get, said can't get close, no
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Okay, bye, see ya, bye)
Father, hope you're listening
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Mum, she's doin' alright and God's good to me
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Something right, thought you wouldn't win
And we wanted it to, and we win
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Your love, we were falling
Maybe all I care about is me, baby all I care about
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Give it to me)
See, I can't get, can't get close
Can't get, I can't get close
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
See, I can't get, can't get close
Can't get, I can't close to you
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
And you walked, when we walked out that door
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Oh, I care, all I want is more
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Don't take control, run to sorrow
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Never no one's there, pouring out, pouring out, see you
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
I can't get, can't get close
Can't get, no I can't get close
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
See, I can't get, can't get close
Can't get, no I can't get close to you
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
See, I can't get, can't get close
Can't get, can't get close
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
See, I can't get, can't get close
Can't get, can't close, oh
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Oh, I'll never, oh never, will I lose your only love
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
See, I never, ever really knew all it
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Whoa, oh love, oh love, oh love, you've taken
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Oh love, you've taken me over
Oh love, you've taken me over
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Oh love, you've taken me
Oh love, you've taken me apart
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Ah, and then you can't get close
And then you can't get close to, to
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
To
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
