Text: Chicago. Closer to You.
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
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
