Fray, The - Closer To Me Lyrics






I take two steps forward and don’t look back
I bear my soul just to cover my tracks
I’m like a dirty cop with blood on my hands
And I know it won’t be long

I’m smoking cigarettes in the laundry mat
I’m wonderin' what’s next and where it’s at
I got a suitcase full of dirty cash
And I know it won’t be long

Have you ever done something so wrong?
Won’t you come a little bit closer to me?
Come a little bit closer

Yeah

They’ve got a thousand bucks bounty on my head
The power line is down and the phone is dead
I gotta know right now, baby are you in?
Cause that door don’t look too strong

Did you know all along?
Won’t you come a little bit closer to me?
Come a little bit closer now
Just a little bit closer
Come a little bit close to me

Everyone plays someone else
And hides the rest in old hotels
But you keep different company

Won't you come a little bit closer to me?
Oh come on, baby
Come a little bit closer now
Just a little bit close baby
Come a little bit closer to me

  4. I.... M....

    Closer To Me

    I take two steps forward and don't look back
    I buried my soul to cover my tracks
    I'm like a dirty cop with blood on my hands
    And I know it wont be long

    Smoking cigarettes in the laundromat
    Wondering what's next and where it's at
    I got a suitcase full of dirty cash
    And I know it wont be long

    Have you ever done something so wrong?

    Won't you come a little bit closer to me?
    Come a little bit closer

    Yeah

    They got a thousand bucks riding on my head
    The power line's down and the phone is dead
    I gotta know right now, baby are you in?
    Cause that door don't look too strong

    Have you ever done something so wrong?

    Won't you come a little bit closer to me?
    Come a little bit closer, now
    Just a little bit closer
    Come a little bit closer to me

    Everyone plays someone else
    And hides the rest in old hotels
    But you keep different company

    Won't you come a little bit closer to me?
    Come on baby
    Come a little bit closer, now
    Just a little bit closer, baby
    Come a little bit closer to me

    Yeah, yeah

  5. T.... ....

    Is this The Maine? :D

  6. A.... ....

    Love it.♡♡♡♡♡♡

  7. D.... W....

    Reminds me of the Jonas brothers...literally

  8. W.... o....

    Curious how many bands one can steal from and still sadly suck...?

    I heard the Go-go's (surfer drum beat here), the Cure ("Pictures...")...

    wow, do I not like this at all. I hope this is a drum machine for as bad as the drums sound, added to.a total lack of feel.

    Got this from the library. I think Led Zeppelin's legend status is still safe...

    came here because I thought it was the band that did the Muppet's "Manna, manna."

  9. N.... A....

    The fray is awesome

  10. J.... A....

    sooo.u




    so much love_& blessings. thsnx

  11. E.... C....

    I never cease to get more and more amazed by this band, the more I listen to them <3

  12. B.... H....

    Love the song! Dont know if it's just me but the intro reminds me a whole lot of Just Like Heaven by The Cure

  13. O.... S....

    J'adore toutes les chansons de The Fray ! Love U So

    O.... S....

    un français sauvage ! Oh ça fait du bien d'en voir ici !

    O.... S....

    +Marie Michot des français ! :o

  14. �.... c....

    The fray is the best

    �.... c....

    yes they are

  15. A.... F....

    Love the song!!! ❤️❤️❤️

  16. S.... M....

    Amo esta canción!!!!

    S.... M....

    yo igual!

  17. T.... P....

    They deserve more comments and subscribers literally going to force my friends to listen to them now xD

  18. L.... ....

    I was only looking for one song by them I heard on Pandora and ended up listening to this whole album and I don't regret it.

  19. J.... ....

    Anyone know what chords are used in this song? And if a capo is used? I'm dying to learn how to play it

  20. C.... P....

    Seeing their concert tonight!!!!

  21. J.... M....

    This songs reminds me of Yellow Cards- Ocean Avenue 

    great song cant wait for the live set at the Greek Theatre.

    J.... M....

    It's either the beat, or BPM. Cause i'm getting that song's vibe too.

  22. A.... S....

    IN LOVE WITH THIS SONGGGG <3

  23. A.... j....

    And the piano?

  24. A.... M....

    What about the piano :/

    A.... M....

    Give it three more years and they'll release their next album with piano again. haha

    A.... M....

    +Hawkeye Trickshot no need to wait so much. They're already recording their next album and it's only been a year and a half since Helios came out

  25. M.... M....

    I don't care if their sound has changed...I still, and always will, love the Fray!!  <3

  26. M.... G....

    The thing is: you have to listen to the album and if you're a Fray fan, it will grow in you like all of them albuns before this one, and you'll end up liking this one just as much. But you have to be persistent and built a relationship with the musics. And if you like the fray, you will do just that.

  27. k.... b....

    This song makes me wanna dance and go on a road trip! Feel good song. Great job guys! :) <333

  28. D.... ....

    Sellouts.

  29. A.... P....

    See, this is actually a little reminiscent of the old fray. They have pretty much changed their whole style here which is a huge dissapointiment for people who liked the fray before

    A.... P....

    I miss it when the Piano was used for the most part :(

    A.... P....

    Yes, if the fray would stay the same, they would be abandoned very soon. It's the best thing they did in this situation. and I think that there are many new songs which are meaningful and beautiful still, so their "style"might have changed, but the feeling what I get when listening this, hasn't changed. :)

    A.... P....

    There's still some piano, it depends on the song. If you really enjoyed The Fray, you would like them no ,ayres if they decided to experiment with a different sound. Every band goes through it.

    A.... P....

    Every artist needs to evolve and change styles. People would get bored of some band whose albums sound all the same

    A.... P....

    Some people don’t understand “change”

  30. c.... ....

    What are the lyrics for the stanza that includes:  "Everyone plays someone else...And ??? ??? ???? in old hotels....But you keep different company!"

    c.... ....

    I think the line you're missing is "Hide the rest in old hotels"

  31. Q.... o....

    In love with this album. ;´)

  32. B.... P....

    I'm so glad I got on the computer to look up the band I heard on scrubs that day.

  33. D.... K....

    Great song! :) Why would two people dislike this? If you don't like it move on to the next video, don't be negative!

  34. I.... S....

    I'm obsessed

  35. N.... R....

    Muy buenooo

  36. A.... w....

    Such a nice melody

  37. A.... E....

    gooodddd

  38. m.... ....

    sounds like the opening song to a summer movie trailer. and was this song inspired by Breaking Bad in some way? :D

  39. I.... A....

    Beautiful song.

  40. K.... C....

    Thank you! Iwas thrilled to.find these this morning!!! I have been BEYOND ready for new music from you guys! The Fray, forever my favorite band! And I love this album so far!!! (:

  41. B.... N....
