Lyrics Closer to Your Love - Al Jarreau

Closer to Your Love

There are those who fly
From the highest heights
On the wings they carry-
Searching for the high
They can never find-
Thinking love is blind
Never mind
They’ll never see
The forest for the trees
'Til they turn to love
Crying through the eyes
Of my own disguise-
Came to know the truth
From the lies
So, I hope you’ll understand how
I’m another kind of man now
All I want is just to stand
Closer to your love
Don’t wanna climb a mountain
Don’t wanna swim a river
I wanna feel the fire, power
And all I can dream of
Don’t wanna climb a mountain
Don’t wanna swim a river
I wanna move in
Closer to your love
If you try to fly
From the highest heights
On the wings you carry-
Searching for the high
Of your own design
You may come to find
You been blind
So I hope you’ll understand how
I’m another kind of man now
All I want is just to stand
A little closer to your love
Don’t wanna climb a mountain
Don’t wanna swim a river
I wanna feel the fire, power
And all I can dream of
Don’t wanna climb a mountain
Don’t wanna swim a river
I wanna move in
Closer to your love
Don’t wanna climb a mountain
Don’t wanna swim a river
I wanna feel the fire, power
And all I can dream of
Don’t wanna climb a mountain
Don’t wanna swim a river
I wanna move in
Closer to your love
Closer, we could be so much closer
Don’t wanna climb a mountain
Don’t wanna swim a river
I wanna feel the fire, power
And all I can dream of
Don’t wanna climb a mountain
Don’t wanna swim a river
I wanna move in
Closer to your love
Don’t wanna climb a mountain
Don’t wanna swim a river
I wanna feel the fire, power
And all I can dream of
Don’t wanna climb a mountain
Don’t wanna swim a river
I wanna move in
Closer to your love, I
Don’t wanna climb a mountain
Don’t wanna swim a river
I wanna feel the fire, power
And all I can dream of
Don’t wanna climb a mountain
Don’t wanna swim a river
I wanna move in
Closer to your love
Well I’m
Don’t wanna climb a mountain
Don’t wanna swim a river
I wanna feel the fire, power
And all I can dream of
Don’t wanna climb a mountain
Don’t wanna swim a river
I wanna move in
Closer to your love
