The Closer I get to you - Roberta flack and Donny Hathaway (Lyrics Video)

[@kevthepoet]

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 than 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 A feeling comes over me (me too) Pulling closer, sweet as the gravity to you

I'm Still Listening 2024❤❤

[@deborahmcdaniels8210]

Yes! Here we are in 2024. And, boy has it ever been some kind of ride. Just thinking of where we have all come from since the big 1999 scare. World wide. But, we soilders and Warrior's are still here holding it down right. With, many of us losing some of our love ones along the way. Both, in the realm of the physical and spiritual too. You, know... Each trying to find themselves through it all. And then trying to make some logical sense of it all. Right... Well, here I am at 4:30 am Just going to bed. And while talking to the Creator this song comes to mind. And I think of how much I love the Lord, and then I think how much this song, makes me feel closer to him. Even though it has nothing to do with God. But in such a deep spiritual fight as I am in. I feel it. Coming through like magic. And being such a old song, not relevant to our time right now. I was, very surprised to see what you said about being here in 2024. Yes! And when I say; Relevant. To this time. It is because we today have been exposed and pushed to listen to music that does not catch, the ear or soul like this. But here we are and into the future we go. With real dreams, or life journey ones. For our life is incomplete witout others to inspire us. It is just the Universe taking to us. As your words have inspired me. In a significant way. Yes! At 4:30 in the morning. Because Our Great and Almighty Creator does not let us take this magnificent journey alone. Even through the very power of words he reaches out to us. So, ups! For tomorrow. And, may the Universe take good care of us. 😂 Be it with tears or sadness, our joy just may come trickleing down in the morning. Because every day that we live. We, can continue in hope. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊. And now I can smile and thank God for a Great day. Peace ✌😮😢

[@johnferguson5481]

12 -13 year old boys weren't supposed to like this one, but there I was that Summer/Fall 1978 enjoying it. Then I'd change the station from WMC FM 100 Memphis to WZXR Rock 103 and jam to Hot Blooded by Foreigner or Don't Look Back by Boston😆

[@normacardenas4048]

Cuanto más me acerco a ti The Closer I Get To You Cuanto más me acerco a ti The closer I get to you Cuanto más me haces ver The more you make me see Dándome todo lo que tienes By giving me all you got Tu amor me ha capturado Your love has captured me Una y otra vez Over and over again Traté de decirme a mí mismo que nosotros I tried to tell myself that we Nunca podríamos ser más que amigos Could never be more than friends Y todo el tiempo dentro de mí supe que era real And all the while inside I knew it was real La forma en que me haces sentir The way you make me feel Acostado aquí a tu lado Lying here next to you El tiempo parece volar Time just seems to fly Necesitandote cada vez más Needing you more and more Vamos a darle una oportunidad al amor (oh, oh, oh) Let's give love a try (oh, oh, oh) Más dulce que dulce crece el amor Sweeter than sweeter love grows Y el cielo está allí para aquellos And heaven's there for those ¿Quién engaña los trucos del tiempo? Who fool the tricks of time Con los corazones del amor encuentran el verdadero amor With the hearts of love they find true love De una manera especial In a special way Cuanto más me acerco a ti The closer I get to you Cuanto más me haces ver The more you make me see Dándome todo lo que tienes By giving me all you got Tu amor me ha capturado Your love has captured me Una y otra vez Over and over again Intento decirme a mí mismo que nosotros I try to tell myself that we Nunca podríamos ser más que amigos Could never be more than friends Y todo el tiempo dentro de mí supe que era real And all the while inside I knew it was real La forma en que me haces sentir The way you make me feel Cuanto más me acerco a ti The closer I get to you Cuanto más me haces ver The more you make me see Entregándote todo lo que tengo By giving you all I got Tu amor me ha capturado Your love has captured me Cuanto más me acerco a ti The closer I get to you Un sentimiento me invade (a mí también) A feeling comes over me (me too) Acercándose más, dulce como la gravedad Pulling closer, sweet as the gravity Cuanto más me acerco a ti The closer I get to you
