Lyrics and translation Roberta Flack - The Closer I Get To You (with Donny Hathaway)
The
closer
I
get
to
you
Plus
je
m'approche
de
toi
The
more
you
make
me
see
Plus
tu
me
fais
voir
By
giving
me
all
you
got
En
me
donnant
tout
ce
que
tu
as
Your
love
has
captured
me
Ton
amour
m'a
capturé
Over
and
over
again
Encore
et
encore
I
tried
to
tell
myself
that
we
J'ai
essayé
de
me
dire
que
nous
Could
never
be
more
than
friends
Ne
pourrions
jamais
être
plus
qu'amis
And
all
the
while
inside
I
knew
it
was
real
Et
tout
ce
temps
au
fond
de
moi,
je
savais
que
c'était
réel
The
way
you
make
me
feel
La
façon
dont
tu
me
fais
ressentir
Lying
here
next
to
you
Allongée
ici
à
côté
de
toi
Time
just
seems
to
fly
Le
temps
semble
filer
Needing
you
more
and
more
J'ai
de
plus
en
plus
besoin
de
toi
Let's
give
love
a
try
Essayons
l'amour
Oh
Oh
Sweeter
and
sweeter
love
grows
L'amour
devient
de
plus
en
plus
doux
Heaven's
there
for
those
Le
paradis
est
là
pour
ceux
Who
fool
the
tricks
of
time
Qui
trompent
les
pièges
du
temps
With
the
hearts
of
love,
they
find
true
love
Avec
les
cœurs
de
l'amour,
ils
trouvent
le
véritable
amour
In
a
special
way
D'une
manière
spéciale
The
closer
I
get
to
you
Plus
je
m'approche
de
toi
The
more
you
make
me
see
Plus
tu
me
fais
voir
By
giving
me
all
you
got
En
me
donnant
tout
ce
que

Your

I

that
we
J'essaie
de
me
dire
que
nous
Could
never
be
more
than

Ne

And

The
feeling
comes
over
me
Le
sentiment
m'envahit
Me
too
Moi
aussi
Pulling
closer,
sweet
as
the
gravity
Je
m'approche,
aussi
doux
que
la
gravité
The
closer
I
get
to
you
Plus
je
m'approche
de
toi
