It?s just how I?m feelin'

If you need more love, well you?ve got to get close to me

If you want my love, well you?ve got to get closer to me

Out to sea for weeks

If you want my love, well you?ve got to get close to me
G F C
If you want my love, well you?ve got to get closer to me

I?ll miss the shivers in my spine every time that we touch.
