[Verse 1]
I may do things you don't understand
But remember I'm only doing the best I can

[Chorus]
Every little thing I do
I'm trying to get closer to you
Nearer, nearer

[Verse 2]
I'm sorry if I seem a little bit stubborn sometimes
I hope I'm not being a nuisance to you
I know you say that you'd be home soon
I've got to be nearer, nearer to you

[Chorus]

[Outro]
I know you say that you'd be home soon
I've got to be nearer, nearer to you[x3]
