Famously Close Songtext
von Al Olender

We were making out in the sun
When I whispered hey remember when we used to be fun
I call radio contests but I have never won
And I start so many projects
But None of them are getting done

It′s a short life, it's a big city
And I just want you
To tell me I look pretty
It′s a steamboat on the Mississippi
It's that one love song you send me
When you really miss me
It's a long walk
Down the Hudson River
But you gave me a letter and I told you
I′d deliver
There′s a stop watch dog
Pulls it from my pocket
I thought I memorized every line
Now I'm worried I forgot it


How did I get here with my head between her legs
It′s what I always wanted but I was too afraid to say
Think I would win the lotto
But I have never played
But I know my lucky numbers now
Cause I know her birthday

It's a short night
Dancing in New York City
But I can′t let another song go on
Without telling you you're pretty
It′s a tour that takes me
Down to Mississippi
It's a show nobody showed up to
Except you
Because you missed me
It's a long lace dress
The one we wore all summer
And the parts of you it hid from view
Were the parts that I′d uncover
There′s a stop watch dog
And no one knows me better
And he leads me to a memory
And leaves when I remember

That we're not young forever
