lirik lagu alma cook - so close
[sample: isaiah oby]
yeah, & i think that’s—
that’s what love is
like that decision
like when things are hard
[verse 1]
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
[chorus]
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
[verse 2]
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
[chorus]
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 so close
i’ve never been…
so close
when we
can we?
[sample: alma cook]
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)
[sample: ron jackson]
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
[sample: justin bowse]
well, that’s the place to get to, right there
