Come a Little Bit Closer Songtext
von Willy DeVille

Boyce-Hart-Farrell

In a little café just the other side of the border
She was just sitting there givin′ me looks that made my mouth water
So I started walking her way, she belonged to that man, José
And I knew, yes I knew I should leave when I heard her say .

Come a little bit closer
You're my kind of man, so big and so strong
Come a little bit closer
I′m all alone and the night is so long.

So we started to dance, in my arms she felt so inviting
That I just couldn't resist just one little kiss so exciting
Then I heard the guitar player say: 'Vamoose, José′s on his way′
Then I knew, yes I knew I should run but then I heard her say .


Come a little bit closer
You're my kind of man, so big and so strong
Come a little bit closer
I′m all alone and the night is so long.

Then the music stopped when I looked the café was empty
Then I heard José say: 'Man you know you′re in trouble plenty'
So I dropped my drink from my hand and through the window I ran
And as I rode away I could hear her say to José .

Come a little bit closer
You′re my kind of man, so big and so strong
Come a little bit closer
I'm all alone and the night is so long.

Come a little bit closer.

Come a little bit closer.

Come a little bit closer, oh I'm so alone.
