Move Closer
Phyllis Nelson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And Ill go mine
But in the meantime
When we're together, touchin' each other
And our bodies do what we feel
When were dancin', smoochin' and swayin'
Tender love song softly playin'
Move closer
Move your body real close
Until we-ee-ee-ee
Feel like we're really makin' love
Ooh-ooh, move closer
Move your body real close
Until we feel like we're really makin' love
So when I say sugar-are and I whisper I love vou
We-e-ell I know you're gonna answer in the sweetest voice
Sayin' my pretty la-ady
I love you too-oo-oo-oo-ooh well
There's much room for passion, ooh-no-no
There's no room for fears
When, the love flows smoothly between us, baby
My dear-ear-ear-ear-ear
Move
Move closer
Move your body real close
Until we feel like we're really makin' love
Woh-oh-oh, move closer
Move your body real close (fade)

Hey baby, you go your way
Hey, my love, we may have our own paths to follow
And Ill go mine
And we may have to walk them separately for a little while
But in the meantime
But in the interim
When we're together, touchin' each other
When we're next to each other, in each other's arms
And our bodies do what we feel
And our emotions lead to physical expression
When were dancin', smoochin' and swayin'
When we're dancing, kissing, and caressing
Tender love song softly playin'
A romantic ballad softly crooning
Move closer
Come closer to me, my love
Move your body real close
Put your body against mine
Until we-ee-ee-ee
Until we, uh, you know
Feel like we're really makin' love
Feel as though we're intimate
Ooh-ooh, move closer
Ooh-ooh, come a little closer
So when I say sugar-are and I whisper I love vou
So when I call you sugar and say I love you softly
We-e-ell I know you're gonna answer in the sweetest voice
I know your response will be tender in return
Sayin' my pretty la-ady
Addressing me in a flowery tone
I love you too-oo-oo-oo-ooh well
Proclaiming your affection for me
There's much room for passion, ooh-no-no
There's ample space for romanticism
There's no room for fears
But none for anxiety or apprehension
When, the love flows smoothly between us, baby
As long as our love flows effortlessly
My dear-ear-ear-ear-ear
My beloved
Move
Come a little closer
Move closer
Come closer to me, my love
Move your body real close
Put your body against mine
Until we feel like we're really makin' love
Until we feel as though we're intimate
Woh-oh-oh, move closer
Woah-oh-oh, come a little closer
Move your body real close (fade)
Put your body against mine (fade out)

Wow, this song with its incredibly emotional lyrics still floods my heart with emotions as much as it did around 40 years ago when I first heard it and danced with my then partner in my arms at the age of 23... “Move closer “ a song that invites you to dream down memories. And it's certainly not just me, as a man who is now 64 years old...💃🕺❤🔥
