She was a Jezabel, this Brixton queen,
Living her life like a backstreet dream,
Telling me lies when the truth was clear,
I think she knew what I wanted to hear,
Spinning me' round like a wheel on fire,
Walking a tightrope on love's highwire,
Fatal attraction is where I'm at,
There's no escape for me.
I just wanna be close to you,
And do all the things you want me to.
I just wanna be close to you,
And show you the way I feel.
I feel love.. when I'm lying in the midnight hour,
Holding you just like a dream,
Love is never what it seems.
When we touch, and you're holding me the way you do,
Girl you make my dreams come true,
You make my dreams come true.
I just wanna be close to you,
And do all the things you want me to.
I just wanna be close to you,
And show you the way I feel.
She was a Gemini on the cusp of Mars,
She holds me back or she goes too far,
Winding me up just to let me down,
So emotionally gagged and bound,
There was more to this than meets the eye,
A devil woman locked inside,
With the full moon rising I was scared,
I think I was possessed.
I just wanna be close to you,
And do all the things you want me to.
I just wanna be close to you,
And show you the way I feel.
I feel love.. everytime your body's next to mine,
Something deep inside of me,
Wants to love you endlessly.
When we touch.. girl you don't know how it makes me feel,
I just can't believe it's real.
I can't believe it's real!
I just wanna be close to you,
And do all the things you want me to.
I just wanna be close to you,
And show you the way I feel.
(..)
She had an attitude I can't explain,
You never know if you're in the frame,
Tying me up with elastic words,
I'm on a countdown till I get hurt,
Her blood was hot and she burned so bright,
A neon sign there in the night,
It's hard to say if I went too far,
My heart still bears the scars.
I just wanna be close to you.
I just wanna be close to you.
(Huh-huh-huh!)
(I just wanna be close to you)
She was a Jezabel, this Brixton queen,
Living her life like a backstreet dream,
Telling me lies when the truth was clear,
I think she knew what I wanted to hear,
Spinning me' round like a wheel on fire,
Walking a tightrope on love's highwire,
Fatal attraction is where I'm at,
There's no escape for me.
I.. wanna be close to you.
And do all the things you want me to,
I just wanna be close to you. (I just wanna be close to you baby)
And show you the way I feel.
I just wanna be close to you,
And do all the things you want me to.
I just wanna be close to you,
And show you the way I feel.
