Come to Me
Come, sit down here beside me, for the day has been so long
It taken has its dreary toll, for everything went wrong.
So just sit down, and rest awhile, and close your weary eyes
And on my shoulder lay your head, until you wish to rise.
Come to me, dear, and settle down, for I can make you whole
And I will ease your troubled mind, and calm your restless soul.
And we will sit here, hand in hand, throughout the dark of night
Til morning breaks, and rising sun will shine its beams of light.
Come to me, for the day is done, and you must have some peace
I'll wrap my arms around you, your frustrations I'll release.
We'll stay that way, all through the night, until the light of dawn
So when we rise to face the day, we'll have strength to go on.
