Close to You Lyrics


She was a Jezebel, this Brixton queen
Livin' her life like a bad sweet dream
Tellin' me lies when the truth was clear
I think she knew what I wanted to hearSpinnin' around like a wheel on fire
Walkin' the tightrope on love's highwire
A fatal attraction is where I'm at
There's no escapin' meI just wanna be close to you
And do all the things you want me to
I just wanna be close to you
And show you the way I feelI feel love
When I'm lying in the midnight hour
Holding you just like a dream
Love is never what it seemsWhen we touch
And you're holdin' me the way you feel
Girl, you make my dreams come true
You make my dreams come trueI just wanna be close to you
And do all the things you want me to
I just wanna be close to you

And show you the way I feelShe was a Gemini on the cusp of Mars
She holds me back but she goes too far
Windin' me up just to let me down
So emotional gagged and boundThere's more to this than meets the eye
A devil woman locked inside
With the formal risin' I was scared
I think I was possessedI just wanna be close to you
And do all the things you want me to
I just wanna be close to you
And show you the way I feelI feel love
Everytime your body's next to mine
Somethin' deep inside of me
Wants to love you endlesslyWhen we touch
Girl, you don't know how it makes me feel
I just can't believe it's real
I can't believe it's realI just wanna be close to you
And do all the things you want me to
I just wanna be close to you
And show you the way I feelShe had an attitude I can't explain
You never know if you're in flame
Tying me up with elastic words
I'm on a countdown till I get hurtHer blood was hot she burned so bright
A neon sign there in the night
It's hard to say if I went too far
My heart still bears a scarI just wanna be close to you
I just wanna be close to you
I just wanna be close to youShe was a Jezebel, this Brixton queen
Livin' her life like a bad sweet dream
Tellin' me lies when the truth was clear
I think she knew what I wanted to hearSpinnin' around like a wheel on fire
Walkin' the tightrope on love's highwire
A fatal attraction is where I'm at
There's no escapin' meI wanna be close to you
And do all the things you want me to
I just wanna be close to you
And show you the way I feelI just wanna be close to you
And do all the things you want me to
I just wanna be close to you
And show you the way I feel
