Close to Me
8-Bit Arcade Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can't go back, that shit sets me off
Just wanna be undercover, like a Romanoff
Get the fuck outta my head times we peck and we bite soft
Sunday morning on my bed and we blast off
Your lips on mine, I take your top off
Make me weak when you make that ass pop
Like a movie
Got a clapper
Don't wanna say that I miss you
All the things I do to please you
I don't give a fuck what you into
I'd do anything I could to keep you
Next to me
I'll set aside all my memories
Give you all my energy
Skipping town on my family
Cause nothing matters anymore
When my baby's close to me
Cause nothing matters anymore
When my baby's close to me, yeah
Nah I ain't mad
I couldn't figure out why you let this love die in my hands
So what's gon' happen to our plans
Life was such a cruise
I just couldn't understand
And this music
Was only decorative
Just a cover for us making love
You taking all of me girl, yea
Don't wanna say that I miss you
All the things I do to please you
I don't give a fuck what you into
I'd do anything I could to keep you
Next to me
I'll set aside all my memories
Give you all my energy
(Give it all, give it all)
Skipping town on my family
Cause nothing matters anymore
When my baby's close to me
Cause nothing matters anymore
When my baby's close to me
Yea yea yea
I miss your legs on me
Use me as seatee
Use me like you gon' lose me
Ride me like a chevy
Ride me like a 'rarri
Like you going 80
Memories gon' make me
Wish that I'm still seventeen
Wish that I'm still seventeen
With you it's catharsis
Life was eden like the garden
Paint each other like an artist
Spend my days on this mattress
With you it's catharsis
Life was eden like the garden
Paint each other like an artist
Spend my days on this mattress
Spend my days on this mattress
Cause nothing matters anymore
When my baby's close to me
Cause nothing matters anymore
When my baby's close to me

I'm skipping tracks of my favourite songs
I'm intentionally avoiding the songs that remind me of you

I desire to hide my feelings, like a member of the Romanoff family in hiding
Get the fuck outta my head times we peck and we bite soft
I want to remove all the memories and thoughts of our arguments and fights from my mind
Sunday morning on my bed and we blast off
We start our day energetically, passionately in bed on a Sunday morning
Your lips on mine, I take your top off
Our intimate moments include passionate kisses and the removal of clothing
Make me weak when you make that ass pop
Your sensual movements make me lose control and weaken my resistance
Making love like a movie
Our intimate moments feel like scenes from a romantic film
Got a clapper
I possess a device to control the lighting and ambiance, enhancing our lovemaking

I couldn't figure out why you let this love die in my hands
I couldn't understand why you allowed our love to fade away while I held onto it
So what's gon' happen to our plans
What will become of the dreams and goals we had together?
Life was such a cruise
Life was easy and enjoyable
I just couldn't understand
I simply couldn't comprehend
And this music
And this music we shared
Was only decorative
It was merely an ornament, lacking deeper meaning
Just a cover for us making love
It served as a disguise for our intimate encounters
You taking all of me girl, yea
You consumed all of my thoughts and emotions, girl
I miss your legs on me
I long for the feeling of your legs entwined with mine
Use me as seatee
Treat me as your comfortable seat to relax on
Use me like you gon' lose me
Utilize me as if you fear losing me
Ride me like a chevy
Engage in passionate physical activity with me, like riding a Chevrolet car
Ride me like a 'rarri
Engage in passionate physical activity with me, like riding a Ferrari car
Like you going 80
With the intensity and speed of going 80 miles per hour
Memories gon' make me
Memories will evoke strong emotions in me
Wish that I'm still seventeen
I yearn for the innocence and freshness of being seventeen again
With you it's catharsis
Being with you brings emotional release and relief
Life was eden like the garden
Life with you felt like paradise, like the Garden of Eden
Paint each other like an artist
We express our love for each other through artistic means, like painting
Spend my days on this mattress
I spend my days in bed, wrapped up in memories of us
