Come Away · letra

I met you on the corner with your lipstick and your lace Frightened, sad and lonely, I could see it in your face I asked you what your name was as you leaned against the wall And when you looked into my eyes I know you heard my spirit call
Come away from this restless night Come away and walk in the light You say it's grey but life is black and white It's gonna be alright, alright now
Your bruised affection, broken heart, your torn and tattered dress You've had some problems in your life and girl I must confess That I don't know the answers to the questions in your head But I love you little sister, please remember what I've said
Come away from this restless night Come away and walk in the light You say it's grey but life is black and white It's gonna be alright, alright now Instead of taking money from lonely men and hanging 'round outside bars You could lay down in the long grass and look up at the stars And try to think about the one who hung the galaxies in space He also has the power, girl, to help you find your place
Come away from this restless night Come away and walk in the light You say it's grey but life is black and white It's gonna be alright, alright now It's gonna be alright now, yeah It's gonna be alright baby You can, you can go home little girl And stop running 'round the world 'Cause it's gonna be alright baby
