I wanna have dinner with gershwin
I wanna watch rembrandt sketch
I wanna talk theory with curie
Impossible I guess
I wanna talk moods with picasso
On a rendezvous
I wanna fly double with earhart
I wanna get next to you
Next to you
So close
Just as close as I can get
The rain of your worry
Can't effect
What I feel is what I feel
One touch
Of your greatness
Is all I need
My circle of fantasy
Would be complete
I wanna sing hymns with mahalia
When the day is through
I wanna tell you about it
I wanna get next to you
Next to you
So close
Just as close as I can get
The rain of your worry
Can't effect
What I feel is what I feel
One touch
Of your greatness
Is all I need
My circle of fantasy
Would be complete
So close
Just as close as I can get
The rain of your worries
Can't effect
What I feel is what I feel
One touch
Of your greatness
Is all I need
My circle of fantasy
Would be complete
I wanna have dinner with gershwin
I wanna watch rembrandt sketch
I wanna talk theory with curie
I wanna get next to you
Next to you, yeah yeah
I'm gonna get next to you
Come on girl, get on board, I got to go
I wanna get next to you, oh baby
I wanna be, I wanna get next to you
I got to go
I'm gonna get next to you
Come on girl, get on board, I got to go
