Lyrics
[Verse 1] You showed up with a paper bag Two peaches rolling in the back We took the long way past the park Trading little pieces of our hearts You said, “I’ve been saving this view” I said, “I’ve been waiting on you” The afternoon leaned into gold And every careful plan let go [Pre-Chorus] If the day runs fast, let it run We’ve got nowhere else to become Take my hand, no need to explain Some roads are better without a name [Chorus] Come a little closer, closer Let the good day pull us over You and me, we make it easy Say my name like you really mean me Oh, I don’t need a perfect reason You’re the best part of this season Come a little closer, closer Stay until the sun is lower [Verse 2] Your laugh got caught inside my shirt When you spilled juice and made it worse We found a bench beneath the trees You drew a heart beside my knee A busker played an old refrain Kids chased bubbles through the lane You looked at me and softly smiled Like we had known this all the while [Pre-Chorus] If the day runs fast, let it run We’ve got nowhere else to become Take my hand, no need to explain Some roads are better without a name [Chorus] Come a little closer, closer Let the good day pull us over You and me, we make it easy Say my name like you really mean me Oh, I don’t need a perfect reason You’re the best part of this season Come a little closer, closer Stay until the sun is lower [Bridge] When the weather turns and the colors fade I’ll remember every choice we made Not the postcard, not the perfect scene Just your shoulder leaning into me [Final Chorus] Come a little closer, closer Let the good day pull us over You and me, we make it easy Say my name like you really mean me Oh, I don’t need a perfect reason You’re the best part of this season Come a little closer, closer Stay until the sun is lower [Outro] Closer, closer, don’t let go Take the long way home real slow Closer, closer, you and me That’s exactly where I want to be
