Posting Lyrics With Little Explanation

Credit to Jimmy Eat World for these lyrics. On their newest (amazing) EP “Stay On My Side Tonight” (recommended by tumbledryer Nils) is a great song called “Closer.” The lyrics follow.

Every day I get a little closer dear
Will you love me darling when I get there
I’ll need sunshine
I’ll need rest
Pour us whiskey, water, kiss

Remember me she said smiling
Write my name somewhere safe
Touch and taste fades with space
I’ll never be who you dream

Every day I try a little harder dear
But those things you do I don’t wanna hear
You’ll have yours I’ll have mine
No one guilty
No one right

Every day I get a little closer dear
Gonna drive fast all night ‘til I get there
Not much time we can waste
Nothing pretty left to say
