Closer Than Close Lyrics


She'll read your mind
She's smart as a whip
She'll suck you dry
But look at how much I dripAt the point of ecstasy
I write a symphony
Of poetry in motion
And leavin' me there to dieI tell myself
Let no one take her place
To confide in someone
And look at how much I paidI want you next to me
Call it telepathy
We drifted into vision
And look at how much we seeAh...
Ah...
I just want to get closer than close to you
To the moment you discoverWhat the best of my love can do
And lovers fall for lover's friends
We make each other cry

Living in each others livesAnd tryin' to make the fantasy come true
But I just want to get closer than close to you, baby
I just want to get closer than close, to you
Your soul is nakedIt tells you what you want
I read your letter
And look at how close I've come
There's more for us to seeIn this philosophy
We both end up in heaven
And look at how close we'd be
Ah...
Ah...I just want to get closer than close to you
I know that one way or the other
Any test of my faith will do
I give my heart for you to breakI give my final breath
When nothing last forever see
What we can turn eternity into
And I just want to get closer than close to you, babyI just want to get closer than close, to you

Peabo Bryson (born Robert Peabo Bryson on April 13, 1951) is an American R&B and soul singer, born in Greenville, South Carolina. He is well known for singing soft-rock ballads, often as a duo with female singers, and his contribution to several Disney animated feature soundtracks.

Bryson won a Grammy Award in 1992 for his performance of the song "Beauty and the Beast" with Céline Dion and another in 1993 for "A Whole New World" (Aladdin's Theme) with Regina Belle.

Peabo's greatest solo hits include 1978's "Feel The Fire" and "I'm So Into You" and the 1984 hit "If Ever You're In My Arms Again". In 1985, he appeared on the soap opera One Life to Live to sing a lyrical version of its theme song. Bryson's vocals were added to the regular theme song in 1987 and his voice was heard daily until 1992.

His tax problems caught up with him on August 21, 2003, when the U.S. Internal Revenue Service seized property from his Atlanta, Georgia, home. He is reported to owe $1.2 million in taxes going back to 1984. The IRS auctioned much of his possessions, including both Grammy Awards, electronic equipment and grand piano. Plunkett, John.
