Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Just to be close to You, I say
Just to be close to You, hey, is my desire, one more time
Just to be close to You (Come on, sing it like you mean it)
Just to be close to You (To the King of kings and Lord and lords)
[Verse 2]
Just to be close to You, hey, is my desire (Everybody sing it)
Just to be close to You, hey, just to be close to You, hey
Just to be close to You is my desire
[Verse 3]
Just to be close to You, hey
Just to be close to You, hey
Just to be close to You is my desire, is my desire, sing
[Verse 4]
Just to be close to You, hey, ya, hey, ya, hey, ya
Just to be close to You, hey, hey, hey, yes, say it
Just to be close to You, hey, yeah, is my desire
Just to be close to You
