Cover art for Come Closer lyrics by My Morning Jacket

...a most gorgous song, when i play "come closer", i hope or rather like to imagine there's a woman somewhere, who's man is a soldier serving his tour in either Iraq or Afghanistan, and when the fighting's over and he comes home...she conveys to him the sentiments of this song. i gather what makes me do that are the lines..."oh soldier you look so strong. who held you that you fought so long." Lastly it's very nice to see how others have taken to the song. bye 4 now.
