Lyrics
COME ALONG WITH ME
Words: Colin Crowley
Music: Howard Richman
AS I START TO WANDER
THAT TRAIL BESIDE THE SEA,
I CAN SPY MY LOVE A WAYS AWAY.
WHY DOES HE STAND YONDER?
WILL HE NEVER WALK WITH ME?
HOWEVER, I?M QUITE SURE SOMETIME HE MAY.
I KNOW HE WILL COME ALONG.
I KNOW HE WILL BE
STROLLING FREE ALL ?SUMMA? LONG WITH ME.
YES, I PRAY HE?LL COME ALONG
FOR EACH DAY MY HEART SINGS
FOR SOMEONE TO STRUM ALONG
UPON MY TAUT HEARTSTRINGS.
I ONLY HOPE THAT DAY
IS NOT TOO FAR AWAY
FOR ALL SKIES WILL BE GRAY TILL HE
DECIDES TO COME ALONG WITH ME.
THEN? (Spoken)
ONCE WHEN I WAS ?GOIN? TO
TRAVERSE THAT SEASIDE TRAIL,
I WAS SHOCKED TO FIND MY LOVE NEARBY.
HE ASKED ?MAY I JOIN, TOO??
GOD, HOW DID MY KNEES NOT FAIL?
PERHAPS BECAUSE THE WHOLE TRUTH WAS THAT I?
KNEW THAT HE WOULD COME ALONG.
I KNEW HE WOULD BE
STROLLING FREE ALL ?SUMMA? LONG WITH ME.
YET THOUGH HE DID COME ALONG,
HE QUICKLY CHOSE TO FLY,
LEAVING ME TO HUM ALONG
TO LOVE A LULLABY.
SO DREAMS CAME TO A CLOSE
BUT OUR THORN HAD A ROSE
FOR THOUGH MY DEAR ONE CHOSE TO FLEE
HE ONCE DID COME ALONG WITH ME.
