Ne-Yo – Closer lyrics
Closer [4x]

[Verse 1:]
Turn the lights off in this place
And she shines just like a star
And I swear I know her face
I just don't know who you are
Turn the music up in here
I still hear her loud and clear
Like she's right there in my ear
Telling me
That she wants to own me
To control me
Come closer
Come closer

[Chorus:]
And I just can't pull myself away
Under a spell I can't break
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
And I just can't bring myself no way
But I don't want to escape
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop

[Verse 2:]
I can feel her on my skin
I can taste her on my tongue
She's the sweetest taste of sin
The more I get the more I want
She wants to own me
Come closer
She says "come closer"

[Chorus:]
And I just can't pull myself away
Under a spell I can't break
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
And I just can't bring myself no way
But I don't want to escape
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop

Come closer [7x]
I just can't stop nooooo
I just can't stop nooooo
I just can't stop nooooo
I just can't stop nooooo

[Chorus:]
And I just can't pull myself away
Under a spell I can't break
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
And I just can't bring myself no way
But I don't want to escape
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop

And I just can't pull myself away
Under a spell I can't break
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop
I just can't stop

Come Closer

    Turn the lights off in this place an she shines just like a star. Satan transforms himself into an angel of light. Tells me that she wants to own me, control me. Doesn't that sound like something that the devil would like to do? Neyo says come closer. That sounds like an invite to me. (Chorus) And I just can't pull myself away under a spell I can't break. Its impossible for him to pull himself away from a spell that satan has placed upon him. But he also stated that he doent want to pull himself away when he says " but I dont want to escape". In the second verse he says she is the sweetest taste of sin. So that's another comfirmation of who he is really talking about. Since in that line a lot of people here the word she, they think that he is talking to a woman but that's what he wants you to think. Neyo just can't stop. So he says come closer.

    I remember this song a few years ago. I was dating a very positive lady at the time who I met at a club whilst on the rebound. She turned out to be a Domme... so her wanting to "control me" and "to own me" had a particular meaning for me. It was fun, passionate, scarey as I was losing control under her. Didn't last but wow!
