Close To Me
Skitall Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lemme take you back to when I was a youngin and one night
I was messaging this girl, we were meeting up all right
Was in the hours of the dark but my heart was burning bright
So we planned on were to meet
Then tomorrow morning came I had them shoes up on my feet
Head out of the door, didn't have the time to eat
And I was running late so I was running down the street
I hung around a while, and I sat on the bench outside
But then you came, looking beautiful and I was lost for words
Entering the library I was feeling like we're nerds
But we sat down and talked, I was surprised with myself
Because I seem to find it difficult with anybody else
I guess it shows that i was comfortable from the start
And you're the only one i have let close to my heart
Your close to me, i'm the serotonin, you're my dopamine
You're close to me, made this song about you for all to see
Your close to me, i'm the serotonin, you're my dopamine
You're close to me, made this song about you for all to see
You a ten out of ten, nah you're off of the scale
My heart is like a boat and you got a set of scales
Scratch that it's like a train and it's flying of the rails
I was blind in love you got me studying braille, ugh
Are you single damn I really had to ask you
Beauty so fine you should teach it in a classroom
Boyfriend cheating why waste time with that dude
I'll always be loyal here to stay like a tattoo
Oh, you so so fine
Got me thinking I should make you mine, yeah
Hit my phone any time, and then get a reply
See that look in your eye, we aint wasting no time
Hit my line, I'll come through and get high
And talk about love until the dead of the night
You the most beautiful girl that I seen in my life so
Grab my hand cause yours fits so right
Your close to me, i'm the serotonin, you're my dopamine
You're close to me, made this song about you for all to see
Your close to me, i'm the serotonin, you're my dopamine
You're close to me, made this song about you for all to see
Your close to me, i'm the serotonin, you're my dopamine
You're close to me, made this song about you for all to see
Your close to me, i'm the serotonin, you're my dopamine
You're close to me, made this song about you for all to see
Yeah
I just wanted to say that i know that
I know that we've had our ups and down's and
I just wanted to say that
If you ever need me
Just give me a call
You know that I'll be there
Be waiting for you
Your close to me, i'm the serotonin, you're my dopamine
You're close to me, made this song about you for all to see
Your close to me, i'm the serotonin, you're my dopamine
You're close to me, made this song about you for all to see
You're close to me
You're close to me
You're close to me
You're close to me

Yeah, this story of my life
Let me tell you about a personal experience I had
Lemme take you back to when I was a youngin and one night
I want to tell you about a specific night from my past
I was messaging this girl, we were meeting up all right
I had plans to meet up with a girl I was messaging
Was in the hours of the dark but my heart was burning bright
It was nighttime but I was excited and full of anticipation
So we planned on were to meet
We had decided on a location to meet
Then tomorrow morning came I had them shoes up on my feet
The next morning, I was ready and wearing my shoes
Head out of the door, didn't have the time to eat
I left quickly without eating breakfast
And I was running late so I was running down the street
I was in a hurry and ended up running to make it on time
Ended up on time but it's funny you weren't in sight
I arrived on time, but the girl wasn't there yet
I hung around a while, and I sat on the bench outside
I waited for a while outside on a bench
But then you came, looking beautiful and I was lost for words
Finally, the girl arrived and I was struck by her beauty
Entering the library I was feeling like we're nerds
We went into the library to talk and I felt a little self-conscious
But we sat down and talked, I was surprised with myself
Despite my nervousness, we had a nice conversation and I was proud of myself
Because I seem to find it difficult with anybody else
Talking to other people is hard for me, but not with her
I guess it shows that i was comfortable from the start
I felt at ease with her from the very beginning
And you're the only one i have let close to my heart
She is the only person I have let get close to my heart
Your close to me, i'm the serotonin, you're my dopamine
She is close to me and makes me happy, and I make her happy too
You're close to me, made this song about you for all to see
I care for her deeply and want to express it publicly
You a ten out of ten, nah you're off of the scale
She is incredibly beautiful and attractive beyond rating scales
My heart is like a boat and you got a set of scales
My heart is swayed by her, like a boat by a set of scales
Scratch that it's like a train and it's flying of the rails
My feelings for her are so strong, it's like a train off the tracks
I was blind in love you got me studying braille, ugh
I was so deeply in love that I was willing to do anything for her
Are you single damn I really had to ask you
I wanted to know if she was single or not
Beauty so fine you should teach it in a classroom
She is so beautiful that others could learn from her
Boyfriend cheating why waste time with that dude
If she has a cheating boyfriend, she shouldn't waste her time with him
I'll always be loyal here to stay like a tattoo
I will always be loyal to her like a permanent tattoo
Oh, you so so fine
She is incredibly beautiful
Got me thinking I should make you mine, yeah
I want to be in a relationship with her
Hit my phone any time, and then get a reply
She can contact me anytime and I will respond quickly
See that look in your eye, we aint wasting no time
We both feel a strong connection and don't want to waste any time
Hit my line, I'll come through and get high
She can call me and we can hang out and have a good time
And talk about love until the dead of the night
We can talk about anything and everything, especially love, for hours
You the most beautiful girl that I seen in my life so
She is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen
Grab my hand cause yours fits so right
We feel comfortable holding hands
I just wanted to say that i know that
I want to express that I understand
I know that we've had our ups and down's and
We've had some good times and some bad times
If you ever need me
I am always here for her
Just give me a call
She can call me anytime she needs me
You know that I'll be there
I will always be there for her
Your close to me, i'm the serotonin, you're my dopamine
She is close to me and makes me happy, and I make her happy too
You're close to me, made this song about you for all to see
I care for her deeply and want to express it publicly
You're close to me
She is important to me
You're close to me
She is important to me
You're close to me
She is important to me
You're close to me
She is important to me
