It's gettin' cooler and the night are falling faster. It inspired this tune:
(for those of you who listened already, I up-loaded a better version...better levels, cleaner sound, I hope!)
A Little Closer To You
the mullet are runnin’ and a northeast wind blows
and the first bit of muley grass is beginning to show
as a kid I didn’t like it ‘cause it only meant one thing
that summer was over and it’s a long time ‘till spring
now that I’m older, let the chilly wind come
I got a fire in the backyard and I can bundle up
but why I welcome sweet autumn and old man winter too
when the nights get long and dark I can snuggle a little closer to you
CHORUS:
yeah, I snuggle a little closer to you
and you snuggle a little closer to me, too
we both sleep much better with a chill in the weather
yeah, I snuggle a little closer to you
II.
like happy little children getting’ into a mess
we both start grinnin’ as we undress
shivering, shivering, ‘till our bodies
and the last thing to warm up is always my feet
but I stick ‘em right on you and you howl at the moon
but baby, sweet baby they warm up real soon
later as we fall asleep I whisper a prayer or two
but mostly I’m thankful I get to snuggle a little closer to you
FADE OUT:
blow wind blow, leaves come tumblin’
down playing a rhapsody meant for just you and me…..
