Come Closer Lyrics - My Morning Jacket

So I slave away on the floor and wall for a day 

Buy you beer, can you pay? 

Get emotional each time they say your name 

Oh soldier, you look so strong 

Who held you that you fought so long? 

Who told you that you left me amazed? 

There's something left you got in me 

How long can you stay? 

I've been waiting all day 

I've been melting away 

Just to be off with you 

Come closer, come closer 

Come closer, come closer 

So today I won't call anyone for a change 

'Toes 'Cross The Floor' hear it play 

Good at holding back at eating away your leg 

Oh soldier, you look so strong 

Who held you that you fought so long? 

Who told you that you left me amazed? 

There's something left you got in me 

How long can you stay? 

I've been waiting all day 

I've been melting away 

Just to be off with you 

Come closer, come closer 

Come closer, come closer 

Come closer, come closer 

Come closer, come closer
