Close To You
(burt bacharach/hal david)
Why do birds suddenly appear
Everytime you are near ?
Just like me,
They long to be close to you
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Everytime you walk by
Just like me,
They long to be close to you
From the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moondust in your hair
Of gold, and starlight in your eyes of blue
Ah, that is why the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me,
They long to be close to you
Just like me,
They long to be close to you
Just like me,
They long to be close to you
From the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moondust in your hair
Of gold, and starlight in your eyes of blue
Ah, that is why the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me,
They long to be close to you
Like me, like me, like me
I wanna be close to you
Woo, ah, close to you
Woo, me too
I wanna be close to you
Ooh, i wanna be, me too
I wanna be close to you
From the day that you were born
The angels got together
A dream come true
That's you, that's you
And i wanna be close to you

( the carpenters )
Why do birds suddenly appear
Everytime you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you...
Why do stars fall off from the sky
Everytime you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be,
Close to you...
On the day that you were born
The angels got together
They decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair
And put a starlight in your eyes so blue
That is why all the girls in town
Follow you, all around
Just like me, they long to be

When I Close my Eyes
When I close my eyes,
I can see my country,
Shining in the light, bright.
When I close my eyes.
When I close my eyes,
I see the trees,
Green against the skyline.
When I close my eyes.
When I close my eyes,
I see stars shining cross,
The wide beyond.
When I close my eyes.
When I close my eyes,
I see the sunset behind your hair,
Halo shining in the air.
When I close my eyes.
When I close my eyes,
I hear the ocean waves,
Crashing on the shore.
When I close my eyes.
When I close my eyes,
I see the moon glistening,
Through your eyes.
When I close my eyes.

Close To You
Ah, ladies and gentlemen, I dont know if you realize it,
But tonight youre in for a special treat. no, no, no, not that, not that!
You only get that treat on full moons. besides, I know theres 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 protect 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 Im feeling all right.
I wanna get
Close to you baby,
Well, close to you baby,
Close to you baby,
I dont 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.
Dont know what to say or do.
I wanna get
Close to you till Im 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 its a pity.
I wanna get
Close to you baby.
I said close to you baby.
Close to you baby.
Dont 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 dont 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 dont know what to say or do
All right

ONE PERSON (Love Poem)
So close, that we are drowning,
So close, that we are still in madness,
So close, that we are invisible in our love,
So close, that we are one 10000 miles apart,
So close, that we do not have to talk to know,
So close, that our hearts beat like one heart,
So close, that we dream the same dreams,
So close, that we breathe the same air,
So close, that we are one person.

Close Again
Written by orbison/melson.
When evening shadows fall.
Im not lonely at all.
Now that youre with me I recall.
How much I love you.
Close again.
Now Im alright, tonight were close again.
Touching your hand means that were close again.
Reaching each other now within
At last were two are really close again.
How long has it been since we loved like this? ,
Ill never ever know.
It seems like only yesterday.
Yet it seems so long ago.
Close again.
Down deep inside were both are close again.
A love that died can be alive again.
I can survive because youve let me in.
Into your heart so very close again.
So love me,like you loved me when you loved me,
And say thats all you want to do.
I am what I am,and all that I am.
Is in love with you,and only you.
So close again.
Thats all that matter,were close again.
Dreams that were scattered are close again.
Hearts that were shattered begin to mend.
Cant help but cry.
For you and I are close again.

Close My Eyes
If I could just close my eyes
See just what I wanted to see
It would be much easier to live this life,
Thinking that it never really comes down to me
Sometimes I wanna close my eyes
So I cant see time while its slipping away
Were all walking a very fine line,
Until reality is somehow thrown in our face
Bury it deep and maybe you wont feel the pain
But you cant let it go
Down the line it will be back again
If we could all close our eyes
To all the things we know that are wrong
We could live selfishly protected lives
Not even think about what we could have done
Say its not there and maybe it will go away
But the truth wont
Down the line it will be back again
And rather than exaime it
I think we maybe I should handle it
What good is it to close my eyes
Or tell myself another lie
Gotta get along somehow and sometimes the only way is to close my eyes
Somtimes I have to close my eyes
And let you think you can make a fool out of me
But I set myself up each time
By trusting you so openly
But thats the way I wanna be, thats the way I wanna be

I Want To Know You For A Long Time
F-ing short the loving lasts
I cant mix the future with the past
Can I stay close to you
I wanna stay close to you
Youve got yours and Ive got mine
And what we have in so hard to define
Just take a look at your life line
Youve got a lot to shine
Lets say baby,
I wanna know you for a long long time
Ooh baby
I wanna know you for a long long time
Oh darling, lady friend
Well see each other when its time to show
Just for a minute or for a year
But then again, dont you and I know
A time between our time together
It doesnt exist, it grows old forever
Just take a look at your life line
Ob baby, youve got a lot to shine
I know it baby,
I wanna know you for a long long time
Ob and baby,
I wanna know you for a long long time
I wanna know baby, I wanna know baby
Oh youve got a lot to live girl
So I wanna know you for a long long time
I wanna know, I wanna know,
I wanna know baby
So much to live for girl,
So much to live for girl
So I wanna know you baby
Wanna know you for a long long time.
I wanna know, wanna know ...

Close Your Eyes
Oh come and take me away
I want to be with you
There's nothing more to say
Could my wish come true
Can you hear me now
I'm screaming it aloud
I wish you'd come somehow
Oh hear me now
I know that you
Have a lot to say
But can you
Pick some other day
To tell me anything but
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Can you
Just close your eyes
For me
Tonight
Just like a bird
You give me wings
Just like a star
You make me sing
It's unbelieveable
What you can do to me
And indescribable
How happy I can be
And I can't go on forever
Without us being together
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Can you
Just close your eyes
For me
Tonight
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Right now
Just hold me tight
And forget everything
Tonight
Right now
Don't think at all
I'll be here when you need me
To catch you when you fall
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Can you
Just close your eyes
For me
Tonight
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Can you
Just close your eyes
For me
Tonight
Right now
Just close your eyes
And don't say a word
Before it's over
Can you
Just close your eyes
For me
Tonight

I Dont Want To Miss A Thing
I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While youre far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure
I dont wanna close my eyes
I dont wanna fall asleep
cuz Ill miss you babe
And I dont wanna miss a thing
cuz even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
Id still miss you babe
And I dont wanna miss a thing
Laying close to you
Feeling your heart beating
And Im wondering what youre dreaming
Wondering if its me youre seeing
Then I kiss your eyes
And thank God were together
I just want to stay with you in this moment forever
I dont wanna close my eyes
I dont wanna fall asleep
cuz Ill miss you babe
And I dont wanna miss a thing
cuz even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
Id still miss you babe
And I dont wanna miss a thing
I dont wanna miss one smile
I dont wanna miss one kiss
I just wanna be with you
Right here with you just like this
I just wanna hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment for all the rest of time
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I dont wanna close my eyes
I dont wanna fall asleep
cuz Ill miss you babe
And I dont wanna miss a thing
cuz even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
Id still miss you babe
And I dont wanna miss a thing
Id still miss you babe
And I dont wanna miss a thing (x2)

Hold your body close to mine it feels so right , dont let go of me
I wanna make love , sweet love, all night long to the rising of the sun
Hold your body close to mine it feels so right dont let go of me
Baby I can give to you any way you like it
You just let me know
Im giving you the key so you can ride me fast or slow
Cuz on this ride of love , were gonna go
To places you and I aint never been before
Baby imagine me kissing all over you
Your bodys trembling, I know youre feeling me
Ooh I know its getting serious
And Im tired of being curious
Cuz my body is filled with lust
Cant take it no more bet you whisper ooooh
I wanna make love , sweet love , all night long to the rising of the sun
Hold your body close to mine it feels so right , dont let go of me
I wanna make love , sweet love, all night long to the rising of the sun

Hold your body close to mine it feels so right , dont let go of me

Hold your body close to mine it feels so right dont let go of me
Girl the chemistry between us, I cant explain
I love to hear call my name
I can see it in your eyes that you want me too
Dont you be afraid of what Im bout to give to you
Girl the tears you cry are out of happiness
Pleasure instead of loneliness
Baby every single part of me inside of you
Pleasing you , pleasing you, make you scream louder
I wanna make love , sweet love , all night long to the rising of the sun
Hold your body close to mine it feels so right , dont let go of me
I wanna make love , sweet love, all night long to the rising of the sun
Hold your body close to mine it feels so right dont let go of me

All Alone With You
J. spinks
I see your face across a crowded room
I hear you say that youll be leaving soon
I know its late but all that I can do
Is close my eyes and dream that Im alone with you
Id like to talk to you so much but I dont know your name
I bet theres not a man in here that doesnt feel the same
As youre walking out the door theres nothing I can do
I close my eyes and dream that Im alone with you
Yeah its once in my life
Wish that I wasnt alone with myself
I feel like a child
Seems that I cant think of anyone else
The night is over an I guess youre gone
I try and tell myself forget it and just carry on
But as I walk these lonely streets with nothing else to do
I close my eyes and dream that Im alone with you
I close my eyes and dream that Im alone with you
I close my eyes and dream that Im alone with you

Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes
I'm sorry it took me so long
I'm sorry it took me so long (to come around)
I'm sorry it took me so long (to come around)
Your famous last words started once your fingers hit the snooze
Just nine more minutes, please..
(And they) They all know where to find me
Every word that I said, what a big mistake
It's the words you left out, That's keeping me away
Well I will never make another promise (without you)
I will never make another promise (with you in mind)
So pace the stairs to your apartment
Like it's where you wanna be
(where you wanna be)
It's where you wanna be
(where you wanna be)
I'm sorry it took me so long
I'm sorry it took me so long (to come around)
I'm sorry it took me so long (to come around)
Well theres a secret I've been perfecting,
I swore I wouldn't but you let me
I'm comfortably confused
(and you...) You've gotten so removed
You know I, I could take the place of those pills
Ocean blue, paint it white
Now who ya gonna call tonight?
Well I will never make another promise (without you)
I will never make another promise (with you in mind)
So pace the stairs to your apartment
Like it's where you wanna be.
(where you wanna be)
It's where you wanna be
(where you wanna be)
[x2]
We paint our sins on the ceiling
I keep them glued to my chest
It keeps me close like a promise kept
(Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yeah)
If I talk in my sleep, will you just keep trying? (We paint our sins on the ceiling),
I'll give it up, if you just keep trying (Well I keep them glued to my chest),
If I talk in my sleep, if I talk in my sleep, it's gone (It keeps me close like a promise kept).
(Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes)
I'm sorry it took me so long
(Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes)
I'm sorry it took me so long
So pace the stairs to your apartment

I Can' Move
Watchin' the sunshine, peekin' over the skyline
Thinkin' I gotta get mine, gotta try at least one time
Wanna get near it, close enough to fear it
Close enough to hear it, close enough to say
That I looked it in the eye and then I turned away
And I'm not scared, but I can't move
I'm not scared, but I can't move
Hangin' out on the weeknight, lookin' off the street light
Gettin' into some fist fight, tryin' to cling to my birth right
I wanna get near her, close enough to smell her
Close enough to tell her all the things that I wanna say
That I looked her in the eye and made her run away
And I don't care (don't care), but I can't move
I don't care (don't care), but I can't move
Layin' up in the sofa, lookin' out of my window
Pullin' back on some endo, watchin' breeze as the wind blow
Wanna get near it, close enough to hear it
Close enough to fear it, close enough to say
That I looked it in the eye and then it turned away
And I'm not scared (not scared), but I can't move
I'm not scared (not scared), but I can't move

Why Can't It Wait 'Til Morning
Why can't it wait 'til morning?
We can talk about it then
'Cos I've had a drink too many
And my troubles, well I ain't got any
Why can't it wait 'til daylight?
Things will seem much clearer then
I'm tired and my eyes are weary
And I just wan't you lying here with me
So close your eyes
I'll make it oh, so nice
Well I don't wanna think about what we've said
And I don't wanna know why we hyrt ourselves
'Cos I just wanna hold you so close to me
It'll take care of itself and I wanna sleep
So why can't it wait 'til next time?
'Cos that time may never come
Stay here with your arms around me
You're going nowhere without me
So close your eyes
I'll make it oh. so nice for you

Don't Come Close
You know it's generally known
You got everything at home
Kisses out of desperation
Bring you more aggravation
And you don't come close
You don't come close
You don't come close
You bring out your souvenirs
Soak them wet with your tears
You lose your imagination
Out of more aggravation
And you don't come close
You don't come close
You don't come close
You turn red with rage
But act your age
Only thing that your regret
You need more time to forget
And you don't come close
You don't come close
You don't come close.

Close Enough
I may not be a pillar in my town
Or have the kind of job, you think that I should
I know you see me out runnin around with a couple of people
You think are no good
Ive tried to clean it up a couple of times, but im a
Backslidin fool when it comes to walkin that line
Its ok. you think, youre better than me
Yeah, thats all right, girl, thats all right
Chorus:
cause im close enough for rock and roll
Close enough for rock and roll
Close enough for rock and roll
Im close enough for a little rock and roll
Yeah, its true, I dont plan my time
When youre looking for me, I m hard to find
I know, you dont wanna run around with me
With my socks fallin down, girl, im just poor company
Ive seen your face, and its a one-eyed jack
We like to talk about this or that
None of these things really interest me
Hey, thats all right, girl, thats all right
Chorus:
cause im close enough for rock and roll
Close enough for rock and roll
Close enough for rock and roll
Im close enough for a little rock and roll
I know you think im a rough cut, baby
I aint as rough cut as I am the blood on your hands
Gonna love that blood right off your hands

Yeah, thats all right, girl, thats all right

Close enough for rock and roll
Close enough for rock and roll
Im close enough for a little rock and roll
