Closer Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey, I was doing just fine before I met you
I drink too much and that's an issue, but I'm okay
Hey, tell your friends it was nice to meet them
But I hope I never see them again (again)

[Pre-Chorus]
I know it breaks your heart
Moved to the city in a broke-down car
And four years, no calls
And now you're lookin' pretty in a hotel bar
And I-I-I can't stop
No, I-I-I can't stop

[Chorus]
So, baby, pull me closer
In the backseat of your Rover
That I know you can't afford
Bite that tattoo on your shoulder
Pull the sheets right off the corner
Of the mattress that you stole
From your roommate back in Boulder
We ain't ever getting older

[Post-Chorus]
We ain't ever getting older
We ain't ever getting older
[Verse 2]
You look as good as the day I met you
I forget just why I left you, I was insane
Stay and play that Blink-182 song
That we beat to death in Tucson, okay

[Pre-Chorus]
I know it breaks your heart
Moved to the city in a broke-down car
And four years, no call
Now I'm lookin' pretty in a hotel bar
And I-I-I can't stop
No, I-I-I can't stop

[Chorus]
So, baby, pull me closer
In the backseat of your Rover
That I know you can't afford
Bite that tattoo on your shoulder
Pull the sheets right off the corner
Of the mattress that you stole
From your roommate back in Boulder
We ain't ever getting older

[Post-Chorus]
We ain't ever getting older
We ain't ever getting older
[Chorus]
So, baby, pull me closer
In the backseat of your Rover
That I know you can't afford
Bite that tattoo on your shoulder
Pull the sheets right off the corner
Of the mattress that you stole
From your roommate back in Boulder
We ain't ever getting older

[Post-Chorus]
We ain't ever getting older (We ain't ever getting older)
We ain't ever getting older (No, we ain't ever getting older)
We ain't ever getting older (We ain't ever getting older)
We ain't ever getting older (We ain't ever getting older)

[Outro]
We ain't ever getting older
We ain't ever getting older

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
