Come Live With Me Lyrics - Five Classic Albums - Heaven 17

I was thirty-seven 

You were seventeen 

You were half my age 

The youth I'd never seen 

Unlikely people meeting in a dream 

Heaven only knows 

The way it should have been 

Here today, my tomorrow 

Where you lead I will follow 

All that kissing 

No passion missing 

Come live with me 

Kiss the boys goodbye 

Come live with me 

Kiss the boys goodbye 

Come live with me 

Dinner parties followed 

And all my age implies 

My friends began to talk 

I began to realize 

If half the things they say 

Are quarter true of me 

Then how can I eclipse the youth? 

You gave to set me free 

There was something in your smile 

That was hard to reconcile 

The time had come to testify to reason 

Though years will not erase 

Remembrance of those days 

At least there's 

No submission to hearts treason 

Here today, my tomorrow 

No more shame, only sorrow 

All that kissing 

There's something missing 

Come live with me 

Kiss the boys goodbye 

Come live with me 

Kiss the boys goodbye 

Come live with me 

Now there's nothing left to cry for 

And there's nowhere left to go 

Just another hopeless fight 

But how were we to know? 

The strong are sometimes wrong 

But the weak are never free 

The choice we made, we can't evade 

Don't try to follow me 

Here today, my tomorrow 

No more pain only sorrow 

All that kissing 

There's something missing 

Come live with me 

Kiss the boys goodbye 

Come live with me 

Kiss the boys goodbye 

Come live with me 

Kiss the boys goodbye 

Come live with me 

Kiss the boys goodbye 

Come live with me 

Kiss the boys goodbye 

Come live with me 

Kiss the boys goodbye 

Come live with me 

Kiss the boys goodbye 

Come live with me 

Kiss the boys goodbye 

Come live with me 

Kiss the boys goodbye
