Take A Closer Look At Me

(Henry Cosby, Pam Sawyer, Joe Hinton)



You asked me from time to time

About different girls that catch your eyes

Love is what you're looking for

But blind may my love you ignore

Standing right before your eyes

Is all the love you'll hope to find

So, throw away your little black book

If there's love you want, here I am



Just take a closer look at me

Just take a closer look at me

Just take a closer look, you'll see in me

(Love---) it's love is what you want, baby

(Love---) love is what you need

(Sweet love)



The girls you chose with no big hits

They struck out with every pitch

Each new day, another complain

But same results with different names

You come to me to straighten your life

Not with love but my advice

I'm your friend, you know for sure

Can't you see I wanna be more?



Just take a closer look at me

Just take a closer look at me

Just take a closer look, you'll see in me

Love---

It's love is what you want, baby

Love is what you need



Haven't you noticed how I find

Clever little ways to steal your time?

Advice I give for you to take

But other girls is for my sake

The very things I said to do

Are the lovely things I want from you

I don't wanna seem so bold

If you can't see, you gotta be told



Just take a closer look at me

Ooh baby

Just take a closer look at me

Just take a closer look at me

Just take a closer look at me

Just take a closer look at me
