Come Closer

(album: Split (My Morning Jacket / Songs: Ohia) - 2002)

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
