Lyrics
[Verse 1] You left your blue cup on my windowsill A little crescent where the sunlight spills I took the long way past the corner store Just hoping I would see you at the door You said, “Come on, the evening’s young” With mango on your fingertips and laughter on your tongue No map, no plan, just shoes on pavement Two loose coins and a borrowed arrangement [Pre-Chorus] If the whole world wants to hurry us Let it run ahead tonight I can feel the air making room for us Everything is landing right [Chorus] Come a little closer, closer Let the good day roll over You and me, we got that easy kind of fire Come a little closer, closer Write your name across my summer One more time, take me higher, higher Oh, higher, higher [Verse 2] Your yellow scarf was tied around the handle Of the bicycle leaning by the sandalwood candle At the open café, you tapped the table Keeping time while the band played something unstable You told me ’bout the town you want to visit A room above the water with a red door in it I said I’d go if you would promise To leave a little space for all our honest nonsense [Pre-Chorus] If the whole world wants to hurry us Let it run ahead tonight I can feel the air making room for us Everything is landing right [Chorus] Come a little closer, closer Let the good day roll over You and me, we got that easy kind of fire Come a little closer, closer Write your name across my summer One more time, take me higher, higher Oh, higher, higher [Bridge] No need to name the feeling No need to make it small Your hand finds mine so easy Like it always knew the way at all And if tomorrow changes We’ll meet it when it comes Tonight the world is open And you’re the place I’m from [Final Chorus] Come a little closer, closer Let the good day roll over You and me, we got that easy kind of fire Come a little closer, closer Write your name across my summer One more time, take me higher, higher Come a little closer, closer Hear the whole room turning golden You and me, we got that easy kind of fire Come a little closer, closer Stay until the night is over One more time, take me higher, higher Oh, higher, higher [Outro] Closer, closer Don’t let the good day go Closer, closer That’s all I need to know
