So Close - Artist: Brook Benton as sung on "The Satin Sound Brook Benton" - Suffolk Marketing-SMI 2 - peak Billboard position # 38 in 1959 - Words and Music by Brook Benton, Luther Dixon, and Clyde Otis So close as we dance across the floor So close to the one that I adore So close in your arms, yet so far from your heart So close to the lips I long to kiss So close, tell me why do you resist? So close in your arms yet so far from your heart We're so close to the real sensation But so far it's only been conversation Now, if you love me let it show But I-I-I-I-I-I-I, I've gotta know, I just got to know Because I'm Too close to the chance I'd love to take Too close to the vows I'd love to make Too close in your arms to be so far from your heart So close Transcribed by Robin Hood These lyrics were transcribed from the specific recording mentioned above and do not necessarily correspond with lyrics from other recordings, sheet music, songbooks or lyrics printed on album jackets.
