Close As You'll Ever Be

歌詞

(I said) Down at the street around half past nine I heard someone scream I found someone dying His throat was slit from ear to ear He mumbled so low I could hardly hear I bent down low so I could hear what he said He said tell me the truth am I nearly that dead I said you're close as you'll ever be Oh yeah you're as close as you'll ever be Down on the beach around half past five I saw a pretty girl on a deckchair reclining A grin split her face from ear to ear I went up close I must have got too near 'Cause I never saw the guy on the sea-front cafe Leaving his seat come and running my way Saying you're close as you'll ever be Oh yeah you're close as you'll ever be Get up close to me honey I said you're close as you'll ever be I said you're close as you'll ever be You know you're as close as you'll ever be Close as you'll ever be C'mon you're close as you'll ever be Oh yea you're close as you'll ever be I said you're close as you'll ever be Gimme as close as you'll ever be
