Come a Little Closer Lyrics
I know that it’s late and maybe I shouldn’t be so into you
It’s just that tonight
I am so taken, I’m fallin’ for you
When I look in your eyes, I can see a million possibilities
And I know you’ll be leaving me soon
But tonight
Come a little bit closer (closer)
Let me hold you, baby
I will be good to you
And we can try to forget tomorrow
And make it last forever tonight
So if you must go
Know that I’ll be missing you, wishing you closer, wow
So let’s make the most of these moments together, we’ll never forget
And it’s breaking my heart ’cause I know
That tomorrow you’ll be miles away
And I catch myself wanting so much more
Tonight
Come closer
Come a little bit closer (a little bit closer)
Let me hold you, baby (hold you, baby)
I will be good to you (good to you)
And we can try (we can try)
To forget tomorrow (tomorrow)
And make it last forever tonight (make it last, yeah, forever tonight)
So if you’re leaving me now
Baby, I don’t know how
I will ever get over you
Because you opened my eyes
To this love that’s inside
Oh baby, baby, don’t ever, leave me (yea)
Come a little bit closer (a little bit closer)
Let me hold you, baby (hold you, baby)
I will be good to you (good to you)
And we can try (we can try)
To forget tomorrow (tomorrow)
And make it last forever tonight (make it last, I need you in my life wow)
Come a little bit closer
Let me hold you, baby (I need you with me)
I will be good to you (let me)
And we can try (we can try)
To forget tomorrow (to forget tomorrow)
And make it last forever tonight (make it last tonight) oh
Come a little bit closer (a little bit closer)
Let me hold you, baby (hold you, baby)
I will be good to you (hold you, baby)
And we can try (we can try)
To forget tomorrow
And make it last forever tonight (make it last tonight)
Come a little bit closer (a little bit closer)
Let me hold you, baby (oh, let me hold you, baby)
I will be good to you
And we can try (we can)
To forget tomorrow (oh)
And make it last forever tonight (make it last)
