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, baby
You know I've been through so many changes in my life girl
I've been up real high where I thought I didn't need anybody
And then again I've been down real low where
There was no one in my life who needed me
And I found that material things I thought had so much value
Oh girl didn't really have any value at all
Then 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
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 woman
You became my purpose, my reason for livin' girl
You see you're my heart, you're soul
You're my stone inspiration
Baby, oh that's why I'm standin' here singin'
And opening my arms to you
I wanna say child why don't you
Take my hand? Oh we'll live in love forever
Yeah take my hand, we'll be alone, you and me yeah
Take my hand
Girl, we'll live our lives together, yeah together
Together, yeah 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
I've been out there searchin' so very long baby
Searchin' to find somebody just like you
And for some folks it takes a lifetime, sugar
To find in this world a dream come true
Why don't you take my hand?
Oh, we'll live in love forever yeah
Take my hand girl, we'll be alone you and me
Take my hand we'll spend our lives together
Together, together, oh oh together, together
Just to be close to you girl
Just for the moment, just for the moment, just for the hour
Just to be close to you girl
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
