"Don't Get So Close To Me"
(Grant Peeples)
Grant Peeples
I wrote this song for Lis Williamson to sing, but she decided to produce ME singing it instead. That's Lis playing and singing with me. Gabe Valla layed down a nice guitar track, too. Sandy Beecher on harp. Lon engineered, mixed and played bass.
Don’t Get So Close To Me
I can feel you when you walk into a room
Its like the walls move, and I forget to breath
And that’s when all the rules start skidding off down the tracks
I need you to step back And not get so close to me
Cause when your eyes meet mine I am captured and tangled up
And when you speak I can feel your words cut through me like a knife
But I can only dream what it’d be like to feel your touch
Electricity’s such dangerous stuff Don’t get so close to me
There’s been times when I can think of no one else
I almost scream for help, it’s a desperate kind of thing
Oh, I can’t help myself you are so beneath my skin
I know where this is going Don’t get so close to me
Cause when your eyes meet mine I am captured and tangled up
And when you speak I can feel your words cut through me like a knife
But I can only dream what it’d be like to feel your touch
Electricity, that’s dangerous stuff Don’t get so close to me
You have a true love I see he’s what makes you shine
And you could never be mine things’ll never go that way
Well, I would have to be blind not to see how hard I’d fall
It would never work at all Don’t get so close to me
Cause when your eyes meet mine I am captured and tangled up
And when you speak I can feel your words cut through me like a knife
But I can only but dream what it’d be like to feel your touch
Electricity’s such dangerous stuff Don’t get so close to me
