Come Wander With Me

Intro (x4) verse 1 I came to this world in a seaside town where the water could cool your broken body out I learned you can rise over the cards in your hand Mama was a woman and a hard-workin' man Now everyone I know had to make their own bed Try to do as good as their fathers did for them I never knew mine so I bandaged the hurt I pretended that my daddy was a bank robber Pre-Chorus Say ooh-ooh-ooh (s-s-say) Ooh-ooh-ooh Oh but you, you always said, "you're just too good a ship to wreck." You said, "never mind nothin', there's a summertime humming once the bandages come off." Yes, and you always believed there was some kind of diamond in me Oh but if you still burn every night in the hurt, I know a place where the pain doesn't reach Come wander with me Come wander with me verse 2 Now I tried to believe but it's so hard to know How to do right, Rudy, with the seeds that we've sown But the voices are loud and the miles are long And heroes are a hard thing to find when you're gone Pre-Chorus So say ooh-ooh-ooh (s-say) Ooh-ooh-ooh Oh but you, you always said, "you're just too good a ship to wreck." You said, "never mind nothin', there's a summertime humming once the bandages come off." Yes, and you always believed there was some kind of diamond in me Oh but if you still burn every night in the hurt, I know a place where the pain doesn't reach Come wander with me Come wander with me Bridge Now I hope the things that trouble me, they don't catch you or put you on your knees But I found out time and work don't make you a man Because time didn't teach me anything, and the working only broke my hands And when someday came I did not understand U-understand, understand Oh but you, you always said, "you're just too good a ship to wreck." You said, "never mind nothin', there's a summertime humming once the bandages come off." Yes, and you always believed there was some kind of diamond in me Oh but if you still burn every night in the hurt, I know a place where the pain doesn't reach Come wander with me Outro (It's hard to sleep, I can bring you a dream, my baby, come wander with me) Come wander with me (it's hard to sleep, I can bring you a dream, my baby, come wander with me) Come wander with me (it's hard to sleep, I can bring you a dream, my baby, come wander with me) Come wander with me (it's hard to sleep, I can bring you a dream, my baby, come wander with me) Just past the door
