Come A Little Closer
Don Williams Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now stop that small talk, turn that light off
It ain't my fault you look so fine
My hearts achin? and I ain't fakin?
I don't ask for much of nuthin', I just need a little lovin?

Come on, babe, come a little closer
Honey, move it over, feels so right
Pull that shade just a little lower
Come a little closer, baby, tonight

Now put that phone down, shut that door now
Let's just think about me and you
My hearts racin', time is a wastin?
I don't want much of nothin?, a little kiss a little hugin?

Come on, babe, come a little closer
Honey, move it over, feels so right
Pull that shade just a little lower
Come a little closer, baby, tonight

Cut off that late show, turn that lamp low
Honey, you know how I feel
My heart's beatin?, the night is pleasin'
I ain't askin' that much of ya, all I want to do is love ya

Come on, babe, come a little closer
Honey, move it over, feels so right
Pull that shade just a little lower
Come a little closer, baby, tonight

Come on, babe, come a little closer
Honey, move it over, feels so right




Pull that shade just a little lower
Come a little closer, baby, tonight
