Closer To You by Paper Heart Lyrics
[Produced by Aundrea Radford]
[Verse 1: Paper Heart]
From your silence
I guess you've drawn a line through my name
Temporary blindness
Has prevented me from doing the same
My friends worry about me
I guess I haven't gotten my fill
Maybe someday Ill erase you
I don't know if I can or will
[Pre-Chorus: Paper Heart]
What we had couldve been unique
But your pride put that to sleep
Next time I won't get that deep
With someone who's mind is not complete
[Chorus: Paper Heart]
This is no way for me to get closer to you
When youve all but said that we are through
This is no way for me to get closer to you
Dont confuse my asking with begging you
This is no way
This is no way
[Verse 2: Paper Heart]
From your hesitation I guess your life has no need for a change
Temporary highness fades and afterwards all you have is the shame
My friends try and warn me even though I know its wrong
My mind still tells me there's a reason to keep hanging on
[Pre-Chorus: Paper Heart]
What we had could've been unique
But your pride put that to sleep
Next time I won't get that deep
With someone who's mind is not complete
[Chorus: Paper Heart]
This is no way for me to get closer to you
When youve all but said that we are through
This is no way for me to get closer to you
Dont confuse my asking with begging you
This is no way
This is no way
[Chorus: Paper Heart]
This is no way for me to get closer to you
When youve all but said that we are through
This is no way for me to get closer to you
Dont confuse my asking with begging you
This is no way
This is no way
[Bridge: Paper Heart]
Before you start comparing me to your new boyfriend
Remember we never really had a chance to begin
So dont say he does all the things Id do if I were there
Cause you truly dont know how much of me Id share
[Pre-Chorus: Paper Heart]
What we had couldve been unique
But your pride put that to sleep
Next time I won't get that deep
With someone who's mind is not complete
[Chorus: Paper Heart]
This is no way for me to get closer to you
When youve all but said that we are through
This is no way for me to get closer to you
Dont confuse my asking with begging you
This is no way
This is no way
