Closer

(album: Give Your Baby A Standing Ovation - 1973)

Ba do ba do ba
Closer, closer, closer
I like to be closer to you
A little bit closer

Closer

Let's get closer
Like two peaches hanging on a tree
Like a sweet, sweet honey to the bees
I want to get closer
Closer
No more breaking up and doing wrong
How come making up takes much too long?
I got to get closer to you
I give to you and you give to me
It's going to be our Love's recipe
Never let temptation intervene
No more evil powers ever come between

Let's get closer (Closer, closer, closer, wooo)

Just like figments sticking in a flood
(Closer, closer, closer, wooo)
Darling, let's be like two pair of ducks
(Closer, closer, closer, wooo)
I want to get closer to You
And even when we're as close as we can get
Let's tell ourselves, we're not close enough yet
While all around me are slowly dying
Let's make our love keep on multiplying

Let's get closer (Closer, closer, closer, wooo)

Like a tide rushing to the shore (Closer, closer, closer, wooo)
May us last my dear forever more (Closer, closer, closer, wooo)
Closer

Keep it together, Let's keep it together
Keep it together, Let's keep it together

Closer
Let's not waste our time fussing or fighting, yeah
(Closer, closer, closer, wooo)
I'd rather spend my time holding each other tight, yeah
(Closer, closer, closer, wooo)
When I'm close to you, yeah (Closer, closer, closer, wooo)
I feel like I'm close to heaven (Closer, closer, closer, wooo)
Darling, can't you see (Closer, closer, closer, wooo)
You're as close as heaven as I want to be
(Closer, closer, closer, wooo)
Let me, let me, let me get closer Baby
Let me, let me, let me get closer
