Brenda Russell Stay Close Lyrics

Stay Close Lyrics

You look at me and wonder

If I'll go under or give you love you need

Will stars always be in heaven?

I'm only guessin' as far as I can see



I could never give up loving the sun

How could I deny such a perfect one?



So, when you want the time, dear

I have to spend here, I'll gladly share with you

My life as far as I imagined

There would be passion if only you stay close



I could never give up wanting to fly

What's a bird in flight without any sky?



You make me smile, it's been a while

Since I felt this way, won't you stay?



Your kiss so light as a feather, pull me together

And I'm a stormy sea

So, shall I ask my question, just a suggestion

Won't you just give your love to me?



My love, make it magic

It would be tragic if you let go of me

I know all the things that sadden could never end

If only you stay close to me
