closer
original words and music: spree
arrangement and backup vocals: ioHann

what up? let me just say this, i don't believe in accidents
this thing with you and me, girl, this is no coincidence
even though it seems like we're living under different times
do you have a minute? won't you listen to these honest rhymes
yeah, it's kind of a long shot
maybe i'm even out of place but
i just gotta say it right now
but i just don't know exactly how

some people tell me, "boy you're gonna have to wait so long"
but i really don't care as long as it's you, baby, i'll stay strong
can you promise me, you'd do the same for me
'cause if you're playin', then it's best you leave
i'm not here to play the game
tell me that you feel the same

how do i tell you that i care for you?
girl don't you know that i'm so into you?
when i'm with you, you make me better
i wanna know you more, i wanna get closer
tell me how do i tell you that i love you?

i know right now you're not ready for a relationship
but, girl, i'm in no rush, so hush.. for you imma wait
for the moment.. we gotta focus on our priorities
you've got school and i've got work 45 hours a week
and when i see you on the weekends
i wanna get stuck in the moment
i can come up with so many reasons
'cause to me these few hours are golden

some fellas trippin' bout us sayin' we can't be together
'cause time and space keeps us apart
i just tell them, 'whatever'
everything will fall into place one day
and that's the day i'm gonna sing
it's you i wanna spend forever with


I also made a short remix just for fun.. hehe. kudos to Paul for a great song ^_^
