| Living in a world where the flesh is cheap. | |
| Body touches body but it's only skin deep. | |
| I can hold you in my arms every time that you weep | |
| But we've lost that emotional flow. | |
| Living on a planet full of emptiness | |
| With maximum exposure full of sleaziness | |
| But the make up on your face can't disguise loneliness | |
| Where designer feelings are in vogue, what do they know? | |
| Darlin' Darlin' how do I get close to you when I'm | |
| Trying, trying my heart is reaching out to you | |
| How do I get close to you? | |
| In this world without feeling, | |
| Where words have no meaning, | |
| If I were lying, lying, | |
| I'd have more chance of reaching you but I'm, | |
| Crying, crying, but I can't get my message through, | |
| How do I get close to you? | |
| Get close to the sinners trying hard to repent | |
| Get close to the homeless wasters and the innocent | |
| Get close to the souls ignored and forgotten by the | |
| Establishment. | |
| People get afraid to touch in case it rubs off on them | |
| Gotta get close, yeah people gotta stay close, close. | |
| People gotta stay close. | |
| Though we seem together, it's breaking my heart. | |
| This world is full of barriers that keep us apart. | |
| Keep it superficial before feelings can start | |
| In a world that's all glitter and glow, what do they know? | |
| Darlin', darlin', I can't communicate to you without | |
| Crying, crying, I can't get a message through | |
| How do I get close to you? | |
| How can I get close? | |
| How can I get close? | |
| Darlin', darlin', how do I get close to you when you're | |
| surviving surviving in a world that's making us confused | |
| Guess I'm afraid of losing you. | |
| In this world without feeling. | |
| Somehow we gotta stay close. |
