Common - Come Close To Me lyrics

Are we livin' in a dream world?

Are ya' eyes still green girl?

I know you're sick 'n tired of arguing,

But you cant keep it bottled in,

Jealousy, we gotta swallow it,

Your heart and mind, baby, follow it,

Smile, happiness you can model it,

And when you feel opposite,

I just want you to know,

Your whole being is beautiful

Imma do the best i can do,

Cuz im the best when im with you.

Chorus: Mary J. Blige

Come close to me baby,

Let your love hold you

though this world gets crazy,

Whats it with out you?(Nothin, nothin..)

Verse 2: Common

Put down your bags, love.

I know in the past, love,

Has been sorta hard on you

But, i see the God in you.

I just wana nurture it,

Though this love may hurt a bit

We dealin wit this water, love.

You even give my daughter love

I wana build a tribe wit'chu,

Protect and provide for you.

Truth is i cant hide from you

The pimp in me, may have to die for you.

Chorus: Mary J. Blige

Come close to me baby,

Let your love hold you

though this world gets crazy,

Whats it with out you?

Bridge: Mary J. Blige

I know what'ya' thinkin, you're on my mind

You're right, you're right, you're right

You promised the flesh was just mine, take time

Hope you're not tired, Tonite, tonite.

Verse 3: Common

You helped me to discover me,

I just want you to be trustin me

I kinda laugh when you cuss at me

The after math is you touchin me

Its destiny that we connected girl

You and I, we can affect the world

Im tired of the fast lane,

I want you to have my last name

Chorus: Mary J. Blige

Come close to me baby,

Let your love hold you

though this world gets crazy,

Whats it with out you?

Bridge: Mary J. Blige

I know what'ya' thinkin, you on my mind

You're right, you're right, you're right

You promised the flesh was just mine, take time

Hope you're not tired, Tonite, tonite.(Repeat.)
