Close To You - El DeBarge

All I can do baby, to keep close to you baby

All I can do baby, safe baby

You say that you need a man in your life

That you can love and trust

And I’m thinking I know just who you need

That would be me, I know I can make you happy

Open your eyes and look at me, baby

Girl

I’m doing all I can do in my power to get close to you

Jumping through hoops and obstacles

Please tell me what I gotta do to

Get close to you, I’m trying get close to you

Get close to you safe baby

You’re afraid to really open up and let me inside

From all the hurt you ever felt in your life

But if you don’t try, you never know what we could be

Take a chance on me, baby

Girl, I’m doing all I can do in my power to get close to you

Jumping through hoops and obstacles

Please tell me what I gotta do to

Get close to you, I’m trying get close to you

Get close to you safe baby

Please don’t make me pay, don’t make me pay

For mistakes someone else made any longer

I long for the day to hear you say

That you’re ready to receive my love

Hey baby, safe baby

To get close to you, tell me what I gotta do, get close to you

I’m trying get close to you, get close to you safe baby, oh, hey
