Come Close, Corazón

[Verse 1]
You leave your jacket on my chair
A little rain still in your hair
The kitchen clock forgets to move
When you come in and cross the room

[Pre-Chorus]
I was saving all my words
Now they tumble out at once

[Chorus]
Come close, corazón, stay awhile
Turn this tired night around
Your hand in mine, your crooked smile
Is the sweetest sound I’ve found
Come close, corazón, don’t let go
Let the whole wide world roll by
One more turn across the floor
With you here by my side

[Verse 2]
Your mother’s recipe is on the stove
The window fogs, the candles low
You tell the same old story twice
I laugh both times; it feels just right

[Pre-Chorus]
I was saving all my words
Now they tumble out at once

[Chorus]
Come close, corazón, stay awhile
Turn this tired night around
Your hand in mine, your crooked smile
Is the sweetest sound I’ve found
Come close, corazón, don’t let go
Let the whole wide world roll by
One more turn across the floor
With you here by my side

[Bridge]
When morning finds us half asleep
I’ll keep this promise, yours to keep
No grand goodbye, no grand design
Just your warm hand holding mine

[Final Chorus]
Come close, corazón, stay awhile
Turn this tired night around
Your hand in mine, your crooked smile
Is the sweetest sound I’ve found
Come close, corazón, don’t let go
Let the whole wide world roll by
One more turn across the floor
With you here by my side

[Outro]
Come close, corazón
Stay awhile
