Get Closer

As sung by Seals and Croft

Darling, if you want me to be closer to you
Get closer to me
Darling, if you want me to be closer to you
Get closer to me
Darling, if you want me to love, love only you
Then love only me
Darling, if you want me to see, see only you
Then see only me

There's a line that I can't cross over
It's no good for me and it's no good for you
And that feeling deep down inside me
I can't explain it and you're wondering why

You say we been like strangers
But I'm not the others you can hang by your fingers

Darling, if you want me to be closer to you
Get closer to me
Darling, if you want me to be closer to you
Get closer to me
Darling, if you want me to love, love only you
Then love only me
Darling, if you want me to see, see only you
Then see only me

There was a time I would come running
Drop everything for the touch of your hand in mine

And I can't go on living
Wondering if you'll be here tomorrow
People change and you're changing
And I've given you my all
That no one can borrow

Darling, if you want me to be closer to you
Get closer to me
Darling, if you want me to be closer to you
Get closer to me
Darling, if you want me to be closer to you
Get closer to me...

I heard this song playing on the radio as I listened to the Delilah show after tonight's meeting. It occurred to me that it summed up just want I want to say to my friend, Pardox. If he'd just tell me what he wanted from me...

I chose to acknowledge and pretty then much ignore him tonight because I really don't know what is going on. It's insanity on my part. I should quit reaching out but I have trouble doing that. I care too much. The closer I get, the closer I want to be. And yet, I am nowhere nearer than I was three years ago.
