I long to be close to you

It thrills me through and through

The touch of your hand

Lets me know where I stand

The beauty of your smile

Will last for quite a while

God planted the seed

And that’s a blessing indeed

I long to be close to you

No one else will do

Nothing can compare

To the moments we share

You brighten my day

In a very special way

You put a move on my heart

From the very start

I long to be close to you

It’s all I want to do

Our bond continues to grow

As we share what we know

To know you is a pleasure

Beyond all measure

Just one look in your eyes

And it’s no surprise

That we’ve stayed together

Through stormy weather

You’re sweeter than morning dew

And I long to be close to you
