I Love the Nearness of You Smokey Robinson

[Intro]
Ooh...
Oh-whoa, yeah
Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, ooh...

[Verse 1]
Are we lovers forever
Or just borrowing days
I know when we're together
Feels like something that should last always
Temporary temptation
Or a permanent joy
Should I make preparation
To be cast aside like broken toy

[Chorus]
I don't know, tell you, I don't know
All I know is that I love the nearness of you
Ooh, baby
I don't know, tell you, I don't know
All I know is that I love the nearness of you
Ooh-ooh, baby

[Verse 2]
From the middle of nowhere
Through the outskirts of bliss
To the inroads of heaven
When my lips feel your kiss
Just how far have I traveled
Where have you taken me
Will love's riddle unravel
Or forever be a mystery
