Closer 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 take two steps forward and don’t look back
I bear my soul just to cover my tracks
I’m like a dirty cop with blood on my hands
And I know it won’t be long
I’m smoking cigarettes in the laundry mat
I’m wonderin what’s next and where it’s at
I got a suitcase full with dirty cash
And I know it won’t be long
Have you ever done something so wrong?
Won’t you come a little bit closer to me?
Come a little bit closer
They’ve got a thousand bucks bounty on my head
The power line is down and the phone is dead
I gotta know right now, baby are you in?
Cause that door don’t look too strong
Did you know all along?
Won’t you come a little bit closer to me?
Come a little bit closer now
Just a little bit closer
Come a little bit close to me
Everyone plays someone else
And hides the rest in old hotels
But you keep different company
Won't you come a little bit closer to me
Oh! Come on, baby
Come a little bit closer now
Just a little bit close baby
Come a little bit closer to me
