The Closest Thing To You

By Jerry Lee Lewis (1976)
On album Country Class (1976), Mercury Smashes... And Rockin' Sessions (2000)

Country Class
She'll listen as I climb the stairs and know the shape I'm in
Cause every time I've had a few Lord I'm at her door again
Well it's not right and it's not love but she's here most anytime
And she's the closest thing to you that I can find

I've used her time and time again
But I never used her up
It seems that after all this time
She'd finally get enough
Cause even though she's in my arms
That woman knows who's in my mind
She's the closest thing to you that I can find

Well I've known it's wrong all along but here I am again
So we'll talk awhile and then she'll smile
And finally she'll give in
Well it's not real, it's not right
But tonight Lord she'll be mine
She's the closest thing to you that I can find

I've used her time and time again....
