Come In

Lyrics

Strong cold hands that are always shaking Through overcoats, sweaters and the sun Your skin is cold as the morning You're abandoned all day "So come in," Said the mother to the rising tide "Come in Give my little one a place to hide" It don't take much to please a 12 year old girl Just tell her the truth and don't let her get too cold And she won't grow up, it's just the world that gets tired Like some sad old whore with a story not sold "So come in," Said the Solid Gold dancer to the sun "Come in Don't you know that any light's always welcome? You're always welcome." A quiet voice is easy to shut down A quiet voice is easy to run into the ground "So come in Don't you know you've been outside for too long? Come in You should know you're always welcome Come in You should know you don't have to be alone Come in Don't you know you're always welcome? You're always welcome"
