Close To You Lyrics - 1970

[ Buy Close To You ]

Maybe it's you

Maybe it's me

Maybe it's just the constant rhythm of the sea

Maybe it's just that i've never been

The kind who can pass a lucky penny by



Maybe it's wise

Maybe it's not

Maybe it's you who brought the caring i'd forgot

Isn't it nice to talk about the special way

That you smile whenever i'm around



Rising on the shore

The ocean came

Walks along the waves of velveteen

His only thought

Was love for me



Couldn't we stay?

Or must we go

Couldn't we stay?

And watch the splashing rock we throw

Only a fool would want to leave this paradise

That i find whenever you're around

Only a fool



Isn't it nice to talk about the special way

That you smile whenever i'm around

Rising on the shore

The ocean's king

Walks along the waves of velveteen

His only thought

Was love for me



Couldn't we stay?

Or must you go

Couldn't we stay?

And watch the splashing rocks we throw

Only a fool would want to leave the paradise

That i find whenever you're around

Only a fool

Only a fool
