I just wanna be close
Where you are
I just wanna be next close
But you’re too far
There’s something about the way your light shines
I wanna be a part of you
I won’t stop ‘til I feel your light inside
I wanna feel the things you do
The clouds in my way can’t
Persuade me to turn back
I won’t let distance be the reason
I’m better than that
I’m willing to climb up the mountain high
If that’s what it takes that’s what I’ll do
And if I need to fly believe I’ll try
I’m not afraid of heaven’s point of view
You’re my destination, my motivation
You’re my fuel
My journey’s not over
‘Til I’m in the presence of you
I just wanna be close to you babe
I just wanna be by your side babe
I just wanna keep you in my arms babe
I just wanna keep you safe from harm babe
I just wanna be where you are babe
I don’t wanna let you go too far babe
We can live amongst the stars my baby
The whole universe is ours my baby

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
