The Closer I Get To You

Roberta Flack & Donny Hathaway

The closer i get to you
The more you make me see
By giving me all you've got
Your love has captured me

Over and over again
I try to tell myself that we
Could never be more than friends
And all the while inside
I knew it was real
The way you make me feel

Lying here next to you
Time just seems to fly
Needing you more and more
Let's give love a try

Sweeter than sweeter love grows
And heaven's there for those
Who fool the tricks of time
With the hearts in love you find
True love in a special way

The closer i get to you
The more you'll make me see
By giving me all you've got
Your love has captured me

Over and over again
I'll try to tell myself that we
Could never be more than friends
And all the while inside
I knew it was real
The way you make me feel

The closer i get to you
The more you'll make me see
By giving you all i've got
Your love has captured me

<Roberta Flack and Donny Hathway>

P.S. BUT DON'T DIS MARVIN OR ARETHA AGAIN, YA HEAR? <g>

Sure OMD, whatever you say.

Keep in mind I am about as good at taking orders, as you are at being coy.

P.S. I cannot, absolutely cannot listen to Aretha, and I can only tolerate a song or two once ever few months, by Marvin.

True Story.

Last week Mr. Neenish and I were out shopping, last Tuesday to be exact. Bought some new appliances, then he did some music shopping, and I did some clothes shopping. We had a wonderful day. (can you believe he had taken an entire day off??? did you feel the earth shake that day???) Ok...back to the story. He meets me in the clothing store, grinning. He had his bag from the music store clutched in his hand. I inquired as to what he bought. This is direct quote, "I am not sure I should tell you as you are not going to be nearly as excited about it, as I am. As a matter of fact you will think I wasted money on buying it" I laughed and said, just tell me what it is?? He proceeded to tell me the story of what a great deal he got on this disk "The Very Best of Marvin Gaye" He was right, I was not the least bit impressed with his purchase. He then told me the what a steal of a deal it was, he had used <wasted> a 10 dollar gift certificate, and then there was a 3 dollar discount coupon on the wrapping. So he got it for about 7 dollars and tax!! He thought that was great. I still think he over paid for it, by about 7 dollars and tax!!!
