Too Close for Comfort Lyrics

I never meant the things I said
To make you cry
Can I say I'm sorry

It's hard to forget

And yes I regret
All these mistakes
I don't know why you're leaving Me
But I know you must have your reasons
There's tears in your eyes
I watch as you cry
But it's getting late

Was I invading in on your secrets
Was I too close for comfort
You're pushing me out
When I'm wanting in
What was I just about to discover
When I got too close for comfort
Driving you home
Guess I'll never know

Remember when we scratched our names into the sand
And told me you loved me
But now that I find
That you've changed your mind
I'm lost the words
And everything I feel for you
I wrote down on one piece of paper
The one in your hand
You won't understand
How much it hurts to let you go

Was I invading in on your secrets
Was I too close for comfort
You're pushing me out
When I'm wanting in
What was I just about to discover
I got too close for comfort
Driving you home
Guess I'll never know

All this time you've been telling me lies
Hidden in bags that are under your eyes
And when I asked you I knew I was right

But if you turn your back on me now, when I need you most but you chose to let me down, down, down.

Would you think about what you're about to do to me
And back down...

Was I invading in on your secrets
Was I too close for comfort
You're pushing me out
When I'm wanting in
What was I just about to discover
I got too close for comfort
You're pushing me out
When I'm wanting in
(Yeh yeh yeh)

What was I just about to discover
When I got too close for comfort
Driving you home
I guess I'll never know...

definately the best song on the album. I think it's pretty obvious what it means. When i heard this song it was a wake up call for me. I never realised i was like that until my friend was like "listen to that song and think about who YOU are"

it's basically two people that are together and one of them starts to want to know more about the other person but that person feels insecure about telling/talking about (personal) things and so they start to break away and push people out.

the 2nd verse, where danny sings : 'And everything I feel for you I wrote down on one piece of paper The one in your hand You won't understand How much it hurts to let you go' makes me melt, he sounds so gorgeous, i think this song is fantastic, the lyrics will mean so much to so many people, because im sure everyone has felt like that at some point in there life

This is definately one of my favourites on the album - the accoustic they did was flawless of this.

The second verse: "Remember when we scratched our names into the sand And told me you loved me But now that I find That you've changed your mind I'm lost the words And everything I feel for you I wrote down on one piece of paper The one in your hand You won't understand How much it hurts to let you go"

I think it's saying that when you really love someone and they've changed their mind, then you reflect the memories and write it as it is. Amazing.

this song if fucking awesome. best song on the album without a doubt. i would explain what it is about but people have already done that so i will just praise the song... like the bit in the song where is sorta breaks down and tom, dougie n danny sing a bit each...it's so amazing! and oh my god! danny's voice is sooo beautiful and powerful! and dougie is just fucking gorgeous, but that is like besides the point... it's so easy to relate to...ahh i love it! :D cuz they sound angry and annoyed, but really they are just frustrated that they are losing the one they love. argh! i love it! soo much! it's fuckin amazin live! anyway! xx mcfly are amazing xx
