| Have you seen the ladies passing by?
|
| They don’t seem to notice that I’m lonesome and I cry
|
| But soon they’ll listen, I can tell you, tell you why
|
| I’m gonna make this record, gonna go sky high
|
| I just wanna be closer to you
|
| I just wanna see if you can be moved, baby
|
| Oh, I don’t wanna be a fool for you, no
|
| I’m goin' to the city, all the hustlers in the street
|
| And can’t you imagine just where my head might be?
|
| Bright lights are shinin', I can see in front of me at night
|
| Clockwork deception, won’t save us, set us free
|
| I just wanna be closer to you, baby
|
| Oh, I don’t wanna be a fool for you
|
| I just wanna see if you can be moved, yeah
|
| I just wanna be closer to you, oh
|
| I’m not supposed to be alone
|
| You know I’m not supposed to be alone, oh no, oh no
|
| We’re coming to this country, gonna play for all our friends
|
| Yeah, we got positive action, got energy to last
|
| So go down 'cause we’re cookin', let the rhythm get you high
|
| And bring all the ladies, tell them why, why, why
|
| I just wanna be closer to you, baby
|
| Oh, I don’t wanna be a fool for you
|
| I just wanna see if you can be moved
|
| Closer to you |
