Marti pellow close to you lyrics

time was never on our side 

beauty reaches for the light 

from the shadow of your smile 

into my heart 

there's a flower in my field you know 

holding love up like a shield 

now I know we have it sealed 

here in my heart 



every night I turn the lights down 

slowly 

and watch you in your afterglow 



I want to get close to you 

tell me you want me too 

what can I do? 

I need you now 

and I want you now 

in my life 



where the stream begins to flow 

a life of love that springs we know 

from every word 

into my soul 



treasure buried deep inside 

turns the hands of love way back in time 

leaving all the past behind 

can we let it go? 



every night I turn the lights down 

slowly 

and watch you in your afterglow 



I want to get close to you 

tell me you want me too 

what can I do? 

I need you now 

and I want you now 

in my life 



we've been holding on 

for things to change 

the fear is gone 

we've turned the page 

in our book of love 



and to know this love 

is to hold it all

from high above and

feel the flow of your love

my love 



I want to get close to you 

tell me you want me too 

what can I do? 

I need you now 

and I want you now 

in my life 



I want to get close to you 

tell me you want me too

I want to get close to you 

I want to get close to you
