In the morning when I wake

And the sun is coming through

Oh, you fill my lungs with sweetness

And you fill my head with you

Shall I write it in a letter

Shall I try to get it down

Oh, you fill my head with pieces

Of a song I can’t get out

Can I be close to you

Oh-oh-oh-ooh, ooh

Can I be close to you

Ooh, ooh

Can I be close to you

Can I be close to you

Can I take it to a morning

Where the fields are painted gold

And the trees are filled with memories

Of the feelings never told

When the evening pulls the sun down

And the day is almost through

Oh, the whole world it is sleeping

But my world is you

Can I be close to you (Ah)

Ooh (aah), ooh (aah)

Can I be close to you (Ah)

Ooh (aah), ooh (aah)

Can I be close to you

Can I be close to you

Can I be close to you

Can I be close to you

Can I be close to you
