- After an eventful debut year, American-Chinese artist Allen Ling announces the release of his first record of 2024, "Closer". Best described as a ‘love ballad for all times’, the latest earworm from the California based singer-songwriter and entrepreneur has the touch of a classic. With a string quartet, ballerinas, the innocence of budding love, and a perfect singalong melody, "Closer" follows in the afterglow of the season of love, with an equally dreamy cinematic video.

Closer Lyrics:
There was a boy
And there was a girl
He stayed at home
She changed the world
They lived so close
She traveled far
Whenever she left
He never could start
Getting Closer
Afraid to hold her
Could not console her
And couldn’t get closure
I want to get Closer
I just want to hold you
I want to get closure
You know that I love you
I want to get close
I want to get Closer to your heart
I want to be
Your perfect lover
Start our lives over
There was a boy
Who loves this girl
She gave him hope
He changed her world
(I want to get Closer)
(I need to be Closer)
As they grew older
He became bolder
Both hands on her shoulders
That day he told her
“I want to get Closer (we need to be loved)
I just want to hold you (need to have trust)
I want to get closure (emotional touch)
You know that I love you”
I want to get close
I want to get Closer to your heart
I want to be
Your perfect lover
Start our lives over
Ohh-Ohh-Ohh
Ohh-ohh-ohh
Ohh-ohh-ohh-oh-ohh
Ohh-ohh-ohh
Ohh-ohh-ohh
Ohh-Ohh-ohh-ohh-ohhh
I want to get close
I want to get Closer to your heart
I want to be
Your perfect lover
Start our lives over
