Roberta Flack featuring Donny Hathaway



The closer I get to you

The more you make me see

By giving me all you got

Your love has captured me



Over and over again

I tried 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



Oh...oh...oh...

Sweeter and sweeter love grows

And heaven’s there for those

Who fool the tricks of time

With the hearts of love, they find true love

In a special way



The closer I get to you

The more you make me see

By giving me all you 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



The closer I get to you

The more you make me see

By giving you all I got

Your love has captured me



The closer I get to you

The feeling comes over me (Me too)

Pulling closer, sweet as the gravity



The closer I get to you
