Close To You
Debelah Morgan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wanna be close to you
I wanna be close to you
I wanna be close to you
I wanna be by your side
If only for just one night

I wanna be close to you
I wanna be in your sight
I'll do anything you want me to
If you let me be close to you

(verse 1)
You made me fall in love again
I swore I'd never let anyone in
But when I'm close to you I feel so alive
You awaken a part of me I thought had died

I see your face inside the moon
And everything reminds me of you
The wind never stops whispering your name
Now that I've met you I will never be the same

Now that I've found you
I will never let you go
Every second every hour
Of the day if I had my way
I'd wanna spend it close to you

Chorus

(verse 2)
I promise you that we'll never fight
And we'll make love all night
You won't have a care coz I'll always be there
To hold you and protect you from whatever's out there

The stars in the sky smile as we walk by
Love is in the air never thought I would share
A love that's unreal that's how you make me feel
I sent my heart out to sea but you rescued me

Now that I've found you
I will never let you go
Every second every hour
Of the day if I had my way
I'd wanna spend it close to you

Chorus

(bridge)
Every night when I'm dreaming
I wanna dream about you
And every morning when I wake up
I wanna wake up right next to you
And if I couldn't go on living
And I had just one night
I'd wanna spend it close to my baby
Coz you make everything alright
