Come to My Bedside

Lyrics

[Chorus] Come to my bedside, my darlin' Come over here and close the door Lay your body soft and close beside me And drop your petticoat upon the floor [Harmonica Solo] [Verse 1] I waited for you, oh, such a long time I tried to grow and be a better man Then you knew your love has made one poor heart wealthy Though my clothes may lay tattered in your hand [Verse 2] Your breast has told my ear life's golden secrets Your back has shown my fingers endless roads Your lips have whispered wisdom that is timeless 'Bout life and death and things I've never known [Chorus] Come to my bedside, my darlin' Come over here, close the door Lay your body soft and close beside me And drop your petticoat upon the floor [Harmonica Solo] [Verse 3] Your eyes are bluer than the mountain water Your hair is flowin' dark, flowin' long Your skin has more gold than a mornin' sunrise It is softer than the breeze of a summer's dawn [Verse 4] I miss you more with ev'ry passin' sunset I plan a plan on every new day born Words cannot describe one thing I'm sure of That it's in my lovin' arms where you belong [Chorus] So come to my bedside, my darlin' Come over here and close the door Lay your body soft and close beside me And drop your petticoat upon the floor
