Close To Me
Mariachi Rock-O Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I bet you've been on it since I met you but you don't know
I'd let you and don't too many get to get close to me…
When you holding me say what you want from me I'll give you more of me
Say what you want from me… give you more of me
Say what you want from me… give you more of me
Stay with me… lay with me I'm tired don't play no games with me
Anything you want I'll give it just tell me you different you won't lose my interest
If you goin lie make it good for me

I can't help but wonder what you want from me
If I I applied the pressure would you run from me
Is just your number one or only one for me
Questions… questions that I don't have the time to ask
Answers that Ima get as time will pass
Broken you wonder why I told you that… Yeah…
I bet you've been on it since I met you but you don't know
I'd let you and don't too many get to get close to me…
When you holding me say what you want from me I'll give you more of me
Say what you want from me… give you more of me
Say what you want from me… give you more of me
Impatient I'm waiting I need you to say something… say something
Lately I'm annoyed by the phone shit you ask why I ain't call I ain't want shit
To be honest I ain't thinkin you would notice if I just fade off on some ghost shit
But I ain't goin lie I'ma try for you in the night time I'ma open wide for you
I been thinking new things I could try for you
I bet you've been on it since I met you but you don't know
I'd let you and don't too many get to get close to me…
When you holding me say what you want from me I'll give you more of me

Say what you want from me… give you more of me
Say what you want from me… give you more of me

Overall Meaning

These lyrics from Mariachi Rock-O's song Close to Me express the sentiments of someone in a relationship who is asking their partner to be more trusting, loving, and honest with them. The singer asserts that they want to be closer to their partner and knows that they love and trust them, but they also recognize that there may be underlying issues preventing them from fully committing to the relationship.

The first two lines demonstrate the singer's frustration with their partner's lack of trust and love. They are effectively asking "If you don't trust or love me, what's the point?" The next two lines suggest that the singer is willing to work on whatever issues may be present in the relationship. They want their partner to be honest with them and let them know what's going on, and they are even willing to explore more physical and intimate aspects of the relationship if that's what's need to strengthen their bond.

The last two lines of the chorus are the most powerful: "So just pull me close/You know that I love you/I love you." This is the ultimate expression of vulnerability and longing, a plea for their partner to embrace them and acknowledge the love that they share. These lyrics are both heartrending and relatable, expressing the yearning that so many people feel when they are in a relationship that isn't fully realized.
