Close to You Lyrics by Gary Wright

The Right Place

0

I wanna be close to you
Don't you leave my side
Stay with me tonight
I wanna be close to you

The sky is blue
There's no rain today
I'm happy its gone away
I'm so glad its through

I was wanderin' over shaky ground
Got too close to the fire and my wings burned down
I fell hard and deep into reckless love
But you rescued me just when I had enough

I wanna be close to you
Don't you leave my side
Baby you feel so right
I wanna be close to you

I needed you
And you came to me
How did you hear my plea
I was such a fool

I was wanderin' over shaky ground
Got too close to the fire and my wings burned down
I fell hard and deep into reckless love
But you rescued me just when I had enough

I wanna be close to you
Don't you leave my side
Being with you I'm fine
I wanna be close to you

I wanna be close to you
I wanna be close to you
Close to you
Yes I wanna be close to you
Oh I wanna be close to you
I wanna be close to you
Yes I wanna be close to you you you
I wanna be close to you
I wanna be I wanna be close to you
Yes I wanna be close to you you you
