Watch Closely Now
Barbra Streisand & Kris Kristofferson Lyrics

Watch closely now
Pay close attention to what's happening in front of you.

You'll observe a curious exchange of energy
There's a unique interaction happening between us right now.

Are you a figment of my imagination
Perhaps you're not real and only exist in my mind.

Or I one of yours?
Or maybe it's the other way around and I'm just a product of your imagination.

Your eyes are like fingers
Your gaze has a powerful effect on me, like a touch of the hand.

They're touching my body and arousing my soul
Your eyes are awakening my passions and desires.

Ridin' the passion arising inside me
I'm allowing myself to feel the intense emotions stirring within me.

How high can I go?
I wonder how far I can push myself to experience more pleasure and ecstasy.

You're comin' with me girl
I'm inviting you to come along on this wild ride of sensual exploration.

I'm gonna show you how
I'll be your guide in exploring the depths of our passion.

When it's scary, don't look down
Don't be afraid, even when things get intense or overwhelming.

I see the hunger arise in your eyes and it's a-urging me on
I can tell you're just as hungry for this experience as I am, and it's pushing me to take things further.

Higher and harder and faster and farther
We're pushing ourselves to new heights of pleasure and desire.

Than I've ever gone
I'm experiencing sensations and emotions I've never felt before.

You're comin' closer lady
You're getting closer and closer to me, and I'm excited to see how far we can go together.

Don't ya leave me now
Don't back out now, we're too invested in this experience together.

We're gonna make it
We're going to achieve the ultimate peak of pleasure and ecstasy.

Maybe I'm takin' me too many chances
Perhaps I'm being reckless or taking too many risks.

With no net at all
Without any guarantee of safety or security.

Maybe I'll teach you at least that
Perhaps I can teach you a valuable lesson from this experience.

You've got to be free when you fall
You have to be willing to take risks and embrace freedom, even if there's a chance of failure or pain.

I'm the master magician, who's setting you free
I'm the one who's showing you how to break free from your limitations and experience true passion and pleasure.

From the lies you've been told
You've been told falsehoods about what you should or shouldn't do or feel, and I'm freeing you from those constraints.

When they're breaking your back
When life is hard and you feel defeated, I'll be there to lift you up.

Bring your last straw to me
Bring your last bit of hope or strength to me, and I'll help you turn it into something beautiful.

I turn straw into gold
I have a special talent for turning something ordinary or difficult into something precious and valuable.

I'm gonna need you later
I know that eventually, I'll need your support and guidance too.

But I can take it
For now, I'm strong enough to handle whatever comes my way.
