old R&b song

I have been looking for this old r&b cut for many years. I don't know who recorded it and it's not the Carpenters lol. The chorus lyrics are:

Close to you
I want to be close to you
Whenever I'm lonely
I want to be with you

If you have any idea where I can find any info on this record, I would appreciate it.

Thanks

A band named Switch, from the late '70s, had a song on their debut album called "I Want to Be Closer". Could that be it?
