Closer Than Most lyrics

Well I kept fantasizing your eyes were wide open
And it made me long for little last night
Yes it was frantic, it was young, it was sweet
But a sweet worth every bite

Now I'm not normally one to be greedy
But I had to be greedy with you
5 days, 6 days. the whole of the month
Wouldn't satisfy my only sweet tooth


[chorus]
Well it can take many years to forge a friendship
It can take a lifetime to get close
But we took all the shortcuts,
Used our hearts as a map
And we still got closer than most

Hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/beautiful_south/closer_than_most.html ]
Well excuse my staring but it's just your looks
Are a standard well above myself
Your face might mean zip to you
But to me it's something else

All I can do is thank you
And wish that every dream you have will come true
5 years, 6 years, the whole of your life
I'll be wishing for the riches for you

[chorus]

You dashed pretty's only chance of a compliment
And gave the plain the blues
Turned supermodel into last year's pull
And got her down shining your shoes

And I don't mean to be hod carrier
Of the ordinary folks bad news
But tell Miss World to fly to Mars
If she really doesn't like to lose.

[chorus]
