about
‘Come a Little Closer’ (co-written with Brent Mason), a fun, country-tinged love song about letting the world go by and taking solace where you can that finds Rhaye channeling her East Coast musical roots with a bit of a Sixpence None the Richer’s ‘Kiss Me’ vibe haunting the edges.
lyrics
sitting for a minute holding the hands
but the clock keeps spinning
grains of sand they fall so fast
they fall so fast
baby let's get lost in bed
turn off the noise
turn off our heads
let's fall in deep
time won't sleep
you, it's you I want
it's you, you I need
listen to the rumors and let them fly
life's to short to wonder why
our love is real
our love is so real
you, you I want
it's you, you I need
come a little closer
let me hear your heart and feel you breathe
come a little closer
let me hear your heart and feel you breathe
tonight the sky is crystal clear
a constellation chandelier
let's dance real slow
oh baby don't let go
come a little closer
let me hear your heart and feel you breathe
come a little closer
let me hear your heart and feel you breathe
come a little closer
let me hear your heart and feel you breathe
come a little closer
let me hear your heart and feel you breathe
but the clock keeps spinning
grains of sand they fall so fast
they fall so fast
baby let's get lost in bed
turn off the noise
turn off our heads
let's fall in deep
time won't sleep
you, it's you I want
it's you, you I need
listen to the rumors and let them fly
life's to short to wonder why
our love is real
our love is so real
you, you I want
it's you, you I need
come a little closer
let me hear your heart and feel you breathe
come a little closer
let me hear your heart and feel you breathe
tonight the sky is crystal clear
a constellation chandelier
let's dance real slow
oh baby don't let go
come a little closer
let me hear your heart and feel you breathe
come a little closer
let me hear your heart and feel you breathe
come a little closer
let me hear your heart and feel you breathe
come a little closer
let me hear your heart and feel you breathe
