Come Over

Robert Palmer

I never found out why you left him


But this answer begs that question


too blind to see tomorrow


Too broke to beg or borrow


Young and stupid


Left wide open


Hearts are wasted


Lives are broken


One more point of contention


I need some intervention


Approached with vague intentions


Betray my short attention


Span the distance


Bridge the border


Beg forgiveness


Round the corner


Everytime I look for you the sun goes down


And I stumble with this whole thing runs aground


I left another message, you are never around


But everytime I look for you the sun goes down down once more


Will the last one out please shut the door


More time apart will give you


A few more months to argue


Is this too much to live through?


It always seemed too far to


Drive the point home


Send more letters


Pray tomorrow


Ends up better


Everytime I look for you the sun goes down


And I stumble with this whole thing runs aground


I left another message, you are never around


But everytime I look for you the sun goes down down once more


Will the last one out please shut the door


I never did do anything that she asked


I never let what happened stay in the past


I never did quite understand what she ment


In spite of everything


In spite of everything


Everytime I look for you the sun goes down


And I stumble with this whole thing runs aground


I left another message, you are never around


Everytime I look for you the sun goes down


And I stumble with this whole thing runs aground


I left another message, you are never around


But everytime I look for you the sun goes down
