Close To You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Ah, ladies and gentlemen, I don't know if you realize it,
but tonight you抮e in for a special treat. No, no, no, not
that, not that!
You only get that treat on full moons. Besides, I know there抯
a lot of young people here,
and I would want anybody to...
Last time it happened, grown men where weeping. Policemen where
turning in their badges.
Oh, I get, I get, everyone was intimidated tonight by all the
security precautions, oh.
Well, just remember their motto is 玴rotect and serve?
I wanna get
Close to you baby like black on white,
Close to you baby like the coldest of ice,
Close to you baby like a siamese twin,
Close to you baby like I'm feeling all right.
I wanna get
Close to you baby,
Well, close to you baby,
Close to you baby,
I don't know what to say or do.
I wanna get
Close to you baby like the sight of your eye?
Close to you baby like the heat is to fire,
Close to you baby close as I can get,
Close to you baby like water is wet.
I wanna get
Close to you baby.
I said close to you baby.
Close to you baby.
Don't know what to say or do.
I wanna get
Close to you till I'm feeling all right,
Close to you gonna love you all night,
Close to you in New York City,
I love you so much, woman, you know it's a pity.
I wanna get
Close to you baby.
I said close to you baby.
Close to you baby.
Don't know what to say or do.
Well
I wanna closer and closer babe
Closer and closer babe
Closer and closer babe
Closer and closer babe
I wanna close to you babe
That I don't know what to say or do.
Well, closer and closer babe
Closer and closer babe
Closer and closer babe
Closer and closer babe
I wanna close to you babe
Oh babe! We love you!
And you make me feel all right
Make me feel all right
Make Robbie feel all right
And you make John feel all right
And make Jim feel all right
And we wanna love you so much to you
I don't know what to say or do
All right
