Larry Norman - Come Away lyrics
[Larry Norman - Come Away lyrics]
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
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
