Dinner with Gershwin

I wanna have dinner with Gershwin

I wanna watch Rembrandt sketch

I wanna talk theory with Curie

Impossible, I guess

I wanna talk moods with Picasso

On a rendezvous

I wanna fly double with Earhart

I wanna get next to you

Ooh, next to you

So close, just as close as I can get

The rain of your worry can't affect

What I feel is what I feel

One touch of your greatness is what I need

My circle of fantasy would be complete

Whoa-oh

I wanna sing hymns with Mahalia

And when the day is through

I wanna tell you about it

I wanna get next to you

Oh, next to you[Verse 2]

So close, just as close as I can get

The rain of your worry can't affect

What I feel is what I feel

One touch of your greatness is what I need

My circle of fantasy would be complete

Whoa-oh

So close, just as close as I can get

The rain of your worry can't affect

What I feel is what I feel

One touch of your greatness is what I need

My circle of fantasy would be complete

Whoa-oh

I wanna have dinner with Gershwin

I wanna watch Rembrandt sketch

I wanna talk theory with Curie

Ooh, I wanna get next to you, next to you

Woo, whoa-oh[Outro]

(Dinner with Gershwin)

Yeah, wanna get next to you, next to you

(Dinner with Gershwin)

Wine and dine you, baby

(I wanna get next to you)

By the candlelight

(Dinner with Gershwin)

You make me lose my speech

(Next to you, next to you)

Speak to me, baby

(I wanna get next to you)

Yeah, yeah, ooh, ooh, ooh

(Dinner with Gershwin)

Baby, let's talk about my heart

It's far gone now

(I wanna get) Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Getting next to you, I couldn't take it

Gimme a chance, we'll talk about it

(Dinner with Gershwin)

Oh babe, wanna get, yeah

Wanna get, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

(Dinner with Gershwin)

Ooh baby
