Come Live With Me

I was thirty-seven, you were seventeen

You were half my age, the youth I'd never seen

Unlikely people meeting in a dream

Heaven only knows the way it should have been

Here today my tomorrow

Where you lead I will follow

All that kissing, no passion missing

Come live with me

Kiss the boys goodbye

Come live with me

Kiss the boys goodbye

Come live with me

Dinner parties followed and all my age implies

My friends began to talk, I began to realize

If half the things they say are quarter true of me

Then how can I eclipse the youth you gave to set me free?

There was something in your smile

That was hard to reconcile

The time had come to testify to reason

Though years will not erase

Remembrance of those days

At least there's no submission to heart's treason

Here today my tomorrow

No more shame, only sorrow

All that kissing, there's something missing

Come live with me

Kiss the boys goodbye

Come live with me

Kiss the boys goodbye

Come live with me

Now there's nothing left to cry for and there's nowhere left to go

Just another hopeless fight but how were we to know

The strong are sometimes wrong but the weak are never free

The choice we made we can't evade, don't try to follow me

Here today my tomorrow

No more shame, only sorrow

All that kissing, there's something missing

Come live with me

Kiss the boys goodbye

Come live with me

Kiss the boys goodbye

Come live with me

Come live with me

Kiss the boys goodbye

Come live with me

Kiss the boys goodbye

Come live with me

Kiss the boys goodbye

Come live with me

Kiss the boys goodbye

Come live with me

Kiss the boys goodbye

Come live with me

Kiss the boys goodbye
