That Close to You (Live)

[Verse]

Like a bolt of lightning, like a bolt of thunder

Like a cloudy day down at the zoo

Like a drowning man that'll never go under

That close to you, yeah, that close to you

[Pre-Chorus]

In the middle of the night

You'd ask me to make you smile

You'd come on like a one-armed child

With a hole in its shoe, poor you

Everybody oughta know

It only hurts you for a little while

Stop putting yourself on trial

For something you didn't do

Not you, to me, can't we be just like

[Chorus]

Lovers and mothers and brothers and sorrow

Can I find a little something with a nicer view?

And I'm hating to plead, but I'm begging to borrow

Just to bе that close to you, yeah, that close to you

[Pre-Chorus]

In thе middle of the night

You'd ask me to make you smile

You'd come on like a one-armed child

With a hole in its shoe, poor you

Everybody oughta know

It only hurts you for a little while

So stop putting yourself on trial

For something you didn't do

Not you, to me, can't we be just like

[Chorus]

Lovers and mothers and brothers and sorrow

Can I find a little something with a nicer view?

And I'm hating to plead, but I'm begging to borrow

Just to be that close to you, yeah, that close to you

[Post-Chorus]

Ooh, that close to you, yeah, that close to you
