Lyrics to Close To You
This is why I didn't wanna go and meet you mama
Why do guys always want you to go and meet their mamas?
I knew I shouldn’t, I tried to make it stop
But you just couldn't, couldn't control your heart
But I knew that this would hurt
This is why I didn’t wanna get close to you
Why I didn't wanna get close to you, ooh
I didn't ever realize that I've never heard your voicemail
Until I broke it off, and then you sent me straight to voicemail
I know that I'm confusing
I know this one feels personal
I know, I know, oh, oh
(I know) But please pick up the phone tonight (I know, oh, oh)
'Cause I just need to hear your voice and I
I knew that this would hurt
This is why I didn't wanna get close to you
Why I didn't wanna get close to you
It’s just not our turn
And boy I know it burns
But this is why I didn’t wanna get close to you
You never should'vе let me so close to you
Babе, you made me feel so safe
You made me change my ways
But you couldn’t do the same
And I hate
That I lost my friend
I hate how we ended
I sweat, I'm not pretendin'
Look, you had your things
I had mine too
Got high off the love, high off the view
You had your drugs
I had my booze
But you got addicted
You had you some demons
You couldn't defeat ’em, I couldn't fix them, look
I just needed you to know that
I knew that this would hurt
This is why I didn't wanna get close to you
Why I didn't wanna get close to you
It's just not our turn baby
And, boy, I know it burns
But this is why I didn't wanna get close to you
You never should've let me so close to you
Oh, I hate it when you say
I wasted all my love on you
I'm so sorry, boy
I wasted all my love on you
I wasted all my love on you
Wasted all my love on you, oh
I wasted all my love on you, yeah
This is why I didn't, oh
Wasted all my love on you
This is why I didn't wanna meet your mama
Wasted all my love on you
I anticipated all this drama
Wasted all my love on you
Oh
I wasted all my love on you
I told you not to
But I'm still sorry boy
Oh
Oh
Why do guys always want you to go and meet their mamas?
I knew I shouldn’t, I tried to make it stop
But you just couldn't, couldn't control your heart
But I knew that this would hurt
This is why I didn’t wanna get close to you
Why I didn't wanna get close to you, ooh
I didn't ever realize that I've never heard your voicemail
Until I broke it off, and then you sent me straight to voicemail
I know that I'm confusing
I know this one feels personal
I know, I know, oh, oh
(I know) But please pick up the phone tonight (I know, oh, oh)
'Cause I just need to hear your voice and I
I knew that this would hurt
This is why I didn't wanna get close to you
Why I didn't wanna get close to you
It’s just not our turn
And boy I know it burns
But this is why I didn’t wanna get close to you
You never should'vе let me so close to you
Babе, you made me feel so safe
You made me change my ways
But you couldn’t do the same

I wasted all my love on you
Wasted all my love on you, oh
I wasted all my love on you, yeah
This is why I didn't, oh
Wasted all my love on you
This is why I didn't wanna meet your mama
Wasted all my love on you

Wasted all my love on you
Oh
I wasted all my love on you
I told you not to
But I'm still sorry boy
Oh
