Lyrics

Keep Me Close

So what do you take me for

What do you see inside

What do you believe I am

What would you disguise

And that you

Nothing left to disguise

So what do you take me for

What do you take me for

The devil whipped instead

And everyone knows

Can see it sinking

[Hook]

Keep me close

Keep me close

Keep me close

Keep me close

Way, way

[Hook]

Keep me close

Keep me close

Keep me close

Keep me close
