Close to You Lyrics » Rihanna
[Verse 1]
Nothing but a tear, that’s all for breakfast
Watching you pretend you’re unaffected
You’re pulling our connections, expecting me to let you go
But I won’t
[Pre-Chorus]
I know you don’t need my protection
But I’m in love, can’t blame me for checking
I love in your direction, hoping that the message goes
[Chorus]
Somewhere close to you
Close to you
Like so close if they hurt you, you wouldn’t find out
Just say now, I’m coming right now to be close to you
[Verse 2]
Said you let it go, you kept it
Working hard to perfect it
But now your fear is reckless, and it’s out of your control
Well just let it go
[Pre-Chorus]
I know you don’t need my protection
But I’m in love, can’t blame me for checking
I love in your direction, hoping that the message goes

About Rihanna’s Close to You from ANTI (2016)
Album-closer “Close to You” is a haunting piano ballad reminiscent of Rihanna’s 2012 stand-out track
“Stay.”
Lyrically, the song deals with the singer’s struggle to move on from a past love.
Frequent Rihanna-collaborator and co-writer for “Close to You,”
James Fauntleroy
talked about the
making of
this R&B ballad:
Whenever I’m writing songs for Rihanna, I’m always thinking about specific things that we all know about her, but I’m also trying to make it something that everyone can relate to. “Close to You” is about some things that I know she feels but that people also feel in general.
When you’re thinking of any famous person that’s had a relationship in the media, you remember that everybody has had that feeling and moment when they’re alone and feeling sad. But people are more likely to pretend that nothing is wrong with them than the opposite.
