Kinks - How Do I Get Close Lyrics
Living in a world where the flesh is cheap.Body touches body but its only skin deep.I can hold you in my arms every time that you weepBut weve lost that emotional flow.Living on a planet full of emptinessWith maximum exposure full of sleazinessBut the make up on your face cant disguise lonelinessWhere designer feelings are in vogue, what do they know?Darlin darlin how do I get close to you when imTrying, trying my heart is reaching out to youHow do I get close to you?In this world without feeling,Where words have no meaning,If I were lying, lying,Id have more chance of reaching you but im,Crying, crying, but I cant get my message through,How do I get close to you?Get close to the sinners trying hard to repentGet close to the homeless wasters and the innocentGet close to the souls ignored and forgotten by theEstablishment.People get afraid to touch in case it rubs off on themGotta get close, yeah people gotta stay close, close.People gotta stay close.Though we seem together, its breaking my heart.This world is full of barriers that keep us apart.Keep it superficial before feelings can startIn a world thats all glitter and glow, what do they know?Darlin, darlin, I cant communicate to you withoutCrying, crying, I cant get a message throughHow do I get close to you?How can I get close?How can I get close?Darlin, darlin, how do I get close to you when youreSurviving surviving in a world thats making us confusedGuess Im afraid of losing you.In this world without feeling.Somehow we gotta stay close.
