Come Close To Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'll never let a girl get away again
Ain't nobody come close to me
To me, to me
If she should try to run I would get a gun
Come on honey, come close to me
To me, to me
There's a bridge on the river
There's a bum in the alley
But there's nobody wrapped in her arms
From the stars in the sky
To the place where I lie
It's like everyone's under her charm
So we drink in the kitchen
And she's drunk on the sidewalk
Where somebody's starting a fight
But there's not much to say
'Cause we've wasted the day
And everyone's wasted tonight
I'll never let a girl get away again
Ain't nobody come close to me
To me, to me
If she should try to run I would get a gun
Come on honey, come close to me
To me, to me
Well I know I'm good lookin'
'Cause I swear on good cookin'
My mom says I'm handsome and strong
And she knows that she's pretty
'Cause the sirens of the city
They're singing a sad jealous song
Upstairs the doors open
Where the gun is still smokin'
Though they lit every bit of evidence
Save a silver spare rubber
That your boy just discovered
Makin' sorrow look like confidence
I'll never let a girl get away again
Ain't nobody come close to me
To me, to me
If she should try to run I would get a gun
Come on honey, come close to me
To me, to me
Standing up is a struggle
When there's juice from the jungle
And I'm filling every cup to the brim
And when john's in the background
And puking his guts out
You can hear them chant asshole at him
On the porch she's with me
Says her name's bethany
As her eyes pull me into a trance
And she tells me to stay
But she just walks away
I'm a dog and I ain't got a chance
I'll never let a girl get away again
Ain't nobody come close to me
To me, to me
If she should try to run I would get a gun
Come on honey, come close to me
To me, to me
