Come Closer

Copyright ©1997 Jorie West

Was it all in my head, or did I hear you say..."I love you"?

Did I just imagine the sweetness of your breath upon my face?

Come close, my love, for I need to know that it is really you

By the sound of your voice, the touch of your hand.

Come closer now, for I know deep in my heart of hearts

Your love could never be imagined and you are here.

You know when I need to hear you say the words that comfort me

Although words cannot express the depth of love you've given me

I can feel it in my soul each time you gently whisper my name

You touch my heart and take my hand again

Come closer now, for who I am depends in who you are in me

You've captured my heart and I am yours

I need to be so close to you that nothing in the world can come between us

You have given me your word, promised that you'd stay close by my side

Come closer love, sometimes my faith's enough to see me through

But not today, I need you

La la la la la la la, la la la la la la la la (I love you)

La la la la la la, la la la la la la la

Come closer, Lord, for who I am depends on who you are in me

I'll never doubt you again.... you are love.
