Close to You Songtext
von El DeBarge

All I can do baby, to keep close to you baby,
All I can do baby, say baby

You say that you need a man in your life that you can love and trust,
And I′m thinking I know just who you need,
That would be me, I know that I can make you happy
Open your eyes and look at me, baby

[Chorus:]
Girl, I'm doing all I can do in my power to get close to you
Jumping through hoops and obstacles
Please tell me what I gotta to do,
Get close to you, I′m tryna get close to you,
Get close to you say baby


You're afraid to really open up and let me inside,
From all the hurt you ever felt in your life,
But if you don't try, you never know what we could be,
Take a chance on me, baby.

[Chorus:]
Girl, I′m doing all I can do in my power to get close to you
Jumping through hoops and obstacles
Please tell me what I gotta to do,
Get close to you, (I wanna get close to you)
I′m tryna get close to you, (baby)
Get close to you, say baby

Please don't make me pay, don′t make me pay
For mistakes someone else made any longer
I long for the day to hear you say
That you're ready to receive my love

[Chorus x2]

Hey baby, say baby
To get close to you, tell me what I gotta do, get close to you,
I′m tryna get close to you, get close to you, say baby, ohhh, hey.
