Alma Cook - So Close Lyrics

[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
