    Love Comes Close is the debut full length from Cold Cave. Written and recorded in Philadelphia in 2008-09, the album was released by Heartworm Press and then re-released by Matador Records just as the band was beginning its foray into cult status.
    Late night bedroom dark anthems for isolated dreamers with nods to the early years of synth pop and experimentation ala The Human League, Throbbing Gristle and New Order. Along with the title track, songs like "Life Magazine", "Heaven Was Full" and "Youth and Lust" went on to become live staples with their equal measures of romance and nihilism. 
    Remastered and cut by Bob Weston at Chicago Mastering Service.

lyrics

Everything changing will unchange again
Sun sheds the light as the life sheds the skin
You kiss your wish to the heart of the well
The secrets you sleep with will not break the spell


Come on lets go home
Buried in your room
Sing a song of death
'Til there's no one left


Love comes close
But chooses to spare me
Death comes close
But ceases to take me
I want to twist the knife a bit deeper
To siphon the love from the hearts I believed in


Look outside
World is exploding
Stay inside
So never knowing
Taking cover
With each other
Sleeping off a century of hope


Every day's changing to remain the same
Silhouettes shy as the rain runs the drain
Every day's decay debases the dream
The ghosts that will haunt you are not what they seem


Still you say your deaf
To depravity
But that can't be true
'Cause I know you can hear me
