Come Away
Written by Rose Betts
LYRICS
CHORUS
So come away with me
Won't you come away
Dawn will rise, but this time I
Will be never seen again
Oh come away with me
I must leave today
Dawn will come but I will run
And be never seen again
VERSE 1
There's nothing here but echoes
It's a city full of ghosts
A version of myself
At every corner I knew most
My footsteps turning rotten
As my voice starts to decay
I'll only be forgotten
Like the shadows in this place
CHORUS
VERSE 2
I took you for a sailor
For a man without a shore
You put me in a cage
It only made me want you more
I liked wearing the colours
That you planted on my skin
But none of it could keep you
From a mistress like the wind
CHORUS
VERSE 3
I made it through the winter
And I waited by the door
But this city and my sailor
They don't call for me no more
My friends moved to the suburbs
I'm the fool who stayed behind
A flower in the gutter
Seeing stars but losing time
CHORUS x 2
