Come a Little Closer / Wild Is the Wind Songtext

von Shirley Horn

Come a little closer
I will sing you my song,
Just a little closer
It won't take very long.
It's late and we can't play this piano to loud
Cause the neighbors upstairs are as sleep, and dreaming.
Come a little closer
I'll tell you my happiness
Softly, sweetly.
Come a little closer and i will sing my song
A little closer it won't take very long
And when its finished,
I know we'll be a little closer than we are
Just a little closer than we were before.
(Music)
Love me, love me, say you do.
Let me fly away with you.
For my love is like the wind
And wild is the wind.
Give me more than one caress,
Satisfy this hungriness.
Let the wind blow through your heart
For wild is the wind.
You touch me:
I hear the sound of mandolins.
You kiss me:
And with a kiss the world begins.
You are Spring to me,
All things to me.
You are life itself...
Like a leave clings to a tree,
Oh my darling cling to me.
For we are creatures of the wind
And wild is the wind, the wind, the wind.
Wild is my love for you.
