Don't get too close, you know I think I could love you Don't get too close, I've got my own life to lead When I lay me down to sleep, I don't want to be dreaming of you Don't get too close, a heartache is something I don't need You breezed in like the south wind in December So warm and so surprising, so sweet and tantalizing That I believe to my soul that I begin to remember Feelings that I thought were dead and buried long ago Don't get too close, you know I think I could love you Don't get too close, I've got my own life to lead When I lay me down to sleep, I don't want to be dreaming of you Don't get too close, a heartache is something I don't need Well I guess I've grown accustomed to the cold I've bundled up my dreams and pulled my heart inside I didn't realize I thought it part of growing old But here are all these feelings flowing like a springtime Don't get too close, you know I think I could love you Don't get too close, I've got my own life to lead When I lay me down to sleep, I don't want to be dreaming of you Don't get too close, a heartache is something I don't need Don't get too close, you know I think I could love you Don't get too close, I've got my own life to lead When I lay me down to sleep, I don't want to be dreaming of you Don't get too close, a heartache is something I don't need
