Come On Come On Lyrics

Some people remember the first time, some can't forget the last

 Some just select what they want to from the past

 It's a song you danced to in high school, it's a moon you tried to bring
down

 On a four in the morning drive through the streets of town

 

 Come on come on, it's getting late now

 Come on come on, take my hand

 Come on come on, you just have to whisper

 Come on come on, I will understand

 

 It's a photograph taken in Paris at the end of the honeymoon

 In 1948, late in the month of June

 Your parents smile for the camera in sienna shades of light

 Now you're older than they were then that summer night

 

 Come on come on, it's getting late now

 Come on come on, take my hand

 Come on come on, you just have to whisper

 Come on come on, I will understand

 

 It's a need you never get used to, so fierce and so confused

 It's a loss you never get over the first time you lose

 

 And tonight I am thinking of someone seventeen years ago

 We rode in his daddy's car down the River Road

 

 Come on come on, it's getting late now

 Come on come on, take my hand

 Come on come on, you just have to whisper

 Come on come on, I will understand

 Come on come on, it's getting late now

 Come on come on, take my hand

 Come on come on, you just have to whisper

 Come on come on, I will understand
