NEAR YOU ALWAYS

 

please don't say I love you

those words touch me much too deeply

and they make my core tremble

don't think you realise the power you have over me

and please don't come so close

it just makes me want to make you near me always

please don't kiss me so sweet

it makes me crave a thousand kisses to follow

and please don't touch me like that

makes every other embrace seem pale and shallow

please don't look at me like that

it just makes me want to make you near me always

 

BRIDGE please don't bring me flowers

they only whisper the sweet things you'd say

and don't try to understand me

your hands already know too much anyway

it just makes me want to make you near me always

 

and when you look in my eyes, please know, your heart is in your hands

it's nothing that I understand

but with your arms you have complete power over me

so be gentle if you please

cos' your hands are in my hair but my heart is in you teeth

and it makes me want to make you near me always

wanna be near you always

your hands are in my hair and my heart is in your teeth

baby, and it makes me want to make you near me always

I want to be near you always

want to be near you always

wanna be near you

always
