Duncan Barton - #5 (Near) lyrics

[Intro: Lonnie Liston Smith] [Verse 1: Duncan] So let me tell you 'bout this girl I've known forever Stick by my side no matter what is the weather and Love may seem a fool's game if you knew no better but Things all start to get f**ed up when we're not together Lovin' her's so easy it seem automatic, but I Would never let her walk alone through all that bad sh**, no That she would reciprocate seems hard to fathom, still she Stands by me even when I puff on the magic dragon She ain't no chiefer, a toke might have her asthmatic, but if I Bring a gla** of water she might support my bad habit [Hook] So baby let's float away from here This love's the only thing they can't take away So just know that I'm near Even if I'm far away [x3] [Bridge] So baby let's float away from here Don't you know that love Love's the only thing they can never Never take away So just know that I'm near [Verse 2] So here we stand one step closer to forever, sure we Both had our doubts when we set out on this endeavor, but I'm sure I've never done a thing quite so clever as when I Made up my mind I wanted you and I together First time I laid eyes on you, we were like eleven and I Saw my first angel kept me believing in a heaven, still I Can't get you off of my mind, it's my confession that I I really just can't see this ending I love you [Hook]
