Just to be close to you, girl
Just for a moment, well, just for an hour
Just to be close to you, girl
Oh well, ah, baby
That I was a lonely man
A man with no direction, with no purpose
With no one to love and no one to love me for, for me
Aw, girl then you, then you came into my life
You made my jagged edges smooth
You made my, you made my direction so clear and you aw, woman
You became my purpose, my reason for livin', girl
You see, you're my heart, you're my soul
You're my stone inspiration, baby
Oh, that's why I'm standin' here singin'
And opening my arms to you
I want to say, "Child, why don't ya-"
Take my hand
Ah, we'll live in love forever
Yeah, take my hand, ooh
We'll be alone, you and me, yeah
Take my hand
Girl, we'll live our lives together, yeah, together
Together, yeah, ah, ah together, together
Just to be close to you, girl
Just for the moment, baby, well, just for an hour
Just to be close to you, girl, hey, hey ooh, ooh
I need you, baby
To make love, to be loved by you, baby
To have your warm body close to mine
To whisper words that make you feel like a woman
Girl, I know our love will stand the test of time
Just to be close to you, girl
For the moment baby, for the moment baby
For the moment, baby
For the sugar, sugar, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Just to be close to you, girl
Just for the moment, just for the hour
Just to be close to you
