Alexander George "Alex" Clare (born 14 September 1985) is a British singer and songwriter from south-west London now living in north-west London, UK. The Too Close Songfacts says that he took up the trumpet and drums as a youngster, but as he grew older he graduated to guitar-based songwriting, playing open-mike nights with original material. Clare dated Amy Winehouse for a year during these early days, after meeting her during a performance at The Hawley Arms in Camden, North London.

AmCDmFE You know I'm not one to break promises AmCDmFE I don't want to hurt you but I need to breathe AmCDmFE At the end of it all, you're still my best friend AmCDmFE But there's something inside that I need to release AmC Which way is right, which way is wrong DmFE How do I say that I need to move on AmCDmFE You know we are headed separate_ways
[Chorus]
AmCDmFE And it feels like I am just too close to love you AmCDmFE There's nothing I can really say AmCDm I can't lie no more, I can't hide no more FE Got to be true to myself AmCDm And it feels like I am just too close to love you FE So I'll be on my way
AmCDmFE x2
[Verse 2]
AmCDmFE You've given me more than I can return AmCDmFE Yet there's oh so much that you deserve AmC Nothing to say, nothing to do, Dm I've nothing to give FE I must leave without you AmCDmFE You know we're headed separate_ways
[Chorus]
AmCDmFE And it feels like I am just too close to love you AmCDmFE There's nothing I can really say AmCDm I can't lie no more, I can't hide no more FE Got to be true to myself AmCDm And it feels like I am just too close to love you
AmCDmFE And it feels like I am just too close to love you AmCDmFE There's nothing I can really say AmCDm I can't lie no more, I can't hide no more FE Got to be true to myself AmCDm And it feels like I am just too close to love you FE So I'll be on my way
