Alma Cook - So Close lyrics

Artist: Alma Cook

album: So Close


Who am I, that I would push back?
Is that the loving thing?
You made a bed for me to lie in
You know I'm trying
See, good men, they never look back
And that's a salty sting
You paved a road for me to walk on
Yet I am not gone
I'm combing through the clover for a four-leaf
Check my pockets over & over
Hoping you'd be calling for me
I would take a maybe or a sure thing
Check my pockets over & over & over
It's like I told you, baby
Not one thing that you said
Was ever just a wasted breath
It's living in, living in my head
And making a home
In places that you lit my hope
I've never been, never been so close
To move a man like a chess piece
(Play 'em)
That's not the loving thing
(Not love)
While I am bold enough to go there
It goes nowhere
(Nowhere)
'Cause I wanna tell you when we next meet
(When we)
I mean, God willing
(Can we?)
That I prayed only for your profit
No matter what the cost to me is
Madison, she knows just how to hold me
She would let me stay here for longer
But she knows I've got to go free
She's the kind of lover that my soul needs
Daylight's getting lower, lower & lower
Wish I could show you, baby
Not one thing that you said
Was ever just a wasted breath
It's living in, living in my head
And making a home
In places that you lit my hope
I've never been, never been so close
To coming correct
I know that you were heaven-sent
You're living in, living in an
Echelon of your own
Could anybody match your glow?
I've never been (never been) so close
Could anybody match your glow?
I've never been...
So close
When we
Can we?
There's like this richness, though
That I mean, I can't, I can't testify with experience
Because I'm not old
But there's a richness that I perceive
To be present in older relationships
Because of this, like, persistence
And this, like, I'm deciding to love you everyday
No matter how I feel about you
Because I told you I would
(I told you I would)
Going all those years and still deciding to be with this person every
You're making the concentrated choice to do that, like
Man, that's prime
I feel like that's prime
Well, that's the place to get to, right there
(Never been, never been, never been)
