[Verse 1]
You set yourself apart from the rest
You're like the nervousness in my chest
You're the way I lose my breath
You're the one who's there when there's nothing left
You set yourself apart from the rest
You're like the nervousness in my chest
You're the way I lose my breath
You're the one who's there when there's no one left

[Chorus]
Come a little closer, don't be scared
I want you smiling back at me, hands in my hair
Come a little closer, baby why don't ya
Come a little closer
Come a little closer, don't be scared
I want you smiling back at me, hands in my hair
Come a little closer, baby why don't ya
Come a little closer

[Verse 2]
You're a common character in my dreams
I wish that you could maybe see that
You are sewn into my memories
Every word that I sing
Can you hear it in the melody?
I wish that you would open up to me
Can you hear it in the melody?
I wish that you would open up to me

[Chorus]
Come a little closer, don't be scared
I want you smiling back at me, hands in my hair
Come a little closer, baby why don't ya
Come a little closer
Come a little closer, don't be scared
I want you smiling back at me, hands in my hair
Come a little closer, baby why don't ya
Come a little closer

[Outro]
You set yourself, apart, apart, from the rest
You're like the, nervousness, in my, in my, in my chest
In my chest
