Close as You'll Ever Be Lyrics

(I said)

Down at the street around half past nine

I heard someone scream

I found someone dying

His throat was slit from ear to ear

He mumbled so low I could hardly hear

I bent down low so i could hear what he said

He said tell me the truth am I nearly that dead

I said you're close as you'll ever be

Oh yea you're as close as you'll ever be

Down on the beach around half past five

I saw a pretty girl on a deckchair reclining

A grin split her face from ear to ear

I went up close I must have got too nearBoomtown Rats - Close as You'll Ever Be - http://motolyrics.com/boomtown-rats/close-as-youll-ever-be-lyrics.html

Cos I never saw the guy on the sea-front cafe

Leaving his seat come and running my way

saying you're close as you'll ever be

Oh yea you're close as you'll ever be

Get up close to me honey

I said you're close as you'll ever be

I said you're close as you'll ever be

You know you're as close as you'll ever be

Close as you'll ever be

C'mon you're close as you'll ever be

Oh yea you're close as you'll ever be

I said you're close as you'll ever be

Gimme as close as you'll ever be
