Come As You Are

(Eric Benét/George Nash Jr.)


Here in my mind
Replaying every line
Remembering all of the love we made
You told me only yesterday
Nothing could take your love away


Here in this room so many traces of you
So many nights lying by your side
Sleeping with secrets deep inside
Secrets your eyes could not deny


Chorus 1:


Come as you are
Lay with me
Beautiful lies once more tell me
With all the love in my heart
I'll set you free
Now that your eyes have said good-bye


I found joy so pure
My heart secure
With the love the two of us would share
And though it all seems so unfair
No one's to blame when love's not there
My whole life has changed
Feels like I'll surely go insane
'Cause my world revolved 'round
a love that never was
Before I say good-bye to love
Just hold me until the morning comes


Chorus 2:


Come as you are stay with me
Kiss me once more before you leave
With all the pain in my heart
I'll set you free
Now that your eyes have said good-bye


Well I know it's not easy
Finding words to let me know
But the pain of make believing
is much more than just letting go


Chorus 1
