Too Close
I'm too close
I'm too close
Too close, yeah
I'm almost
I'm almost
To walking out that door
Wait there one minute young man, listen
Don't you know that I'm
Too, too, too close
And I just can't, Lord, turn around
I just can't (can't turn around)
Long as I know (turn around)
I got my hand (can't turn around)
Don't have to be on either side (turn around)
One thing mother told me (turn around)
There were many children (can't turn around)
Mother would take a little time out (turn around)
She said you're too close to Heaven (to turn around)
You're too close (to turn around)
And I love (I love the Lord)
I love, I love (I thank you Jesus)
Thank you, Jesus (I love the Lord)
I love you (I thank you Jesus)
My friend (turn around)
Love one (turn around)
Oh Lord (Can't turn around)
I love you (I love you, Lord)
Listen to me boy:
I'm too
I'm too (I'm gonna take my time to sing it, look)
I'm too
I'm too
I thank you (I thank you, Jesus)
I thank you (I thank you Lord)
Begin to feel alright right now (I love you Lord)
I love you (I thank you Jesus)
Pharoah will (I thank you Lord)
Keep on rollin' (I thank you Jesus, thank you Jesus)
I'm too close
Too close, yeah
I'm almost
I'm almost
To walking out that door
Wait there one minute young man, listen
Don't you know that I'm
Too, too, too close
And I just can't, Lord, turn around
I just can't (can't turn around)
Long as I know (turn around)
I got my hand (can't turn around)
Don't have to be on either side (turn around)
One thing mother told me (turn around)
There were many children (can't turn around)
Mother would take a little time out (turn around)
She said you're too close to Heaven (to turn around)
You're too close (to turn around)
And I love (I love the Lord)
I love, I love (I thank you Jesus)
Thank you, Jesus (I love the Lord)
I love you (I thank you Jesus)
My friend (turn around)
Love one (turn around)
Oh Lord (Can't turn around)
I love you (I love you, Lord)
Listen to me boy:
I'm too
I'm too (I'm gonna take my time to sing it, look)
I'm too
I'm too
I thank you (I thank you, Jesus)
I thank you (I thank you Lord)
Begin to feel alright right now (I love you Lord)
I love you (I thank you Jesus)
Pharoah will (I thank you Lord)
Keep on rollin' (I thank you Jesus, thank you Jesus)
