Too Close Lyrics

For the first time I wasn't hoping for a romance

I was doing just fine being on my own

In the first place, you had just a friend in me

But then you kept leading me, leading me, leading me on

At first, I didn't really know what was happening

But it hit me one night while I was trying to fall asleep

I tried to block you out of my mind 'cause, I swear, I didn't want you

But with your looks and words and hugs you kept leading me on

So I wrote my soul for you

It was a show and tell

But you were preoccupied

With yourself

You wouldn't look at me

Our conversations are a memory

So now I'm fighting writing with writing for my health

You don't want nothing from me

Apart from what others see

But I don't look good on you

If I'm too close

But girl what's in your head

That'd make you ignore the things I said?

I've given others parts of me

But I told you the most

I guess I got too close

I guess I got too close

Now I'm in shock 'cause I took you for a nice girl

But the girl I fell for was a lie

And maybe I'm not the one who should be on stage with a painted face

'Cause you're a much better actor than I

I wrote my soul for you

It was a show and tell

But you were preoccupied

With yourself

You wouldn't look at me

Our conversations are a memory

So now I'm fighting writing with writing for my health

You don't want nothing from me

Apart from what others see

But I don't look good on you

If I'm too close

But girl what's in your head

That'd make you ignore the things I said?

I've given others parts of me

But I told you the most

I guess I got too close

I guess I got too close

Take me away

Take me a way on out of here

'Cause I don't want to be here another month

I don't want to be here another year

Take me away

Take me a way on out of here

'Cause I don't want to be here another month

No, I don't want to be here another year

Take me away

Take me a way on out of here

'Cause I don't want to be here another month

No, I don't want to be here another year

Take me away

Take me a way on out of here

'Cause I don't want to be here another month

No, I don't want to be here another year
