Closer

[Verse 1: Kele]
22nd of Loneliness
I know what's not being said
Fall asleep in my clothes again
On your side of the bed
Underneath an open window
You'll find me biding my time
Howling and empty-hearted
Cause you're not here

[Chorus: Jodie Scantlebury]
In your absence, I unravel
In your absence, I am gone
So go easy on this heart, time to love or fall apart
In your absence, I unravel
I need you closer
I need you back here in my life
I need you closer (closer)
I need you closer

[Verse 2: Kele]
23rd of Loneliness
Our secrets stopped being shared
Walk the streets on my own again
With your laughter in my head
In every face I see, there's you, there's you
These wounds stay open and raw
In every voice I hear, there's you, there's you
But you're not here

[Chorus: Jodie Scantlebury]
In your absence, I unravel
In your absence, I am gone
So go easy on this heart, time to love or fall apart
In your absence, I unravel
I need you closer
I need you back here in my life
I need you closer (closer)
I need you closer
