0:55Looking out the door I see the rain
0:59Fall upon the funeral mourners
1:06Parading in a wake of sad relations
1:11As their shoes fill up with water
1:20And maybe I'm too young to
1:24Keep good love from going wrong
1:30But tonight you're on my mind so you never know
1:42Broken down and hungry for your love
1:47With no way to feed it
1:54Where are you tonight
1:59Child you know how much I need it
2:07Too young to hold on
2:12And too old to just break free and run
2:19Sometimes a man gets carried away
2:24When he feels like he should be having his fun
2:30And much too blind to see the damage he's done
2:36Sometimes a man must awake to find that really
2:42He has no-one
2:50So I'll wait for you and I'll burn
2:56Will I ever see your sweet return
3:01Oh will I ever learn
3:04Oh lover you should've come over
3:14Cause it's not too late
3:28Lonely is the room the bed is made
3:31The open window let's the rain in
3:39Burning in the corner is
3:42The only one who dreams he had you with him
3:53My body turns and yearns
3:57For a sleep that will never come
4:02It's never over
4:06My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
4:14It's never over
4:17All my riches for her smiles
4:19When I slept so soft against her
4:26It's never over
4:30All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
4:38It's never over
4:42She's the tear that hangs inside my soul forever
4:52Well maybe I'm just too young
4:57To keep good love from going wrong
5:07Oh lover you should've come over
5:31Cause it's not too late
5:34Well I feel too young to hold on
5:39And I'm much too old to break free and run
5:45Too deaf dumb and blind to see the damage I've done
5:50Sweet lover you should've come over
5:58Oh love well I'm waiting for you
6:17Lover you should've come over
6:25Cause it's not too late
Looking out the door I see the rain
Fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in a wake of sad relations
As their shoes fill up with water
And maybe I'm too young to
Keep good love from going wrong
But tonight you're on my mind so you never know
Broken down and hungry for your love
With no way to feed it
Where are you tonight
Child you know how much I need it
Too young to hold on
And too old to just break free and run
Sometimes a man gets carried away
When he feels like he should be having his fun
And much too blind to see the damage he's done
Sometimes a man must awake to find that really
He has no-one
So I'll wait for you and I'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return
Oh will I ever learn
Oh lover you should've come over
Cause it's not too late
Lonely is the room the bed is made
The open window let's the rain in
Burning in the corner is
The only one who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns
For a sleep that will never come
It's never over
My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
It's never over
All my riches for her smiles
When I slept so soft against her
It's never over
All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
It's never over
She's the tear that hangs inside my soul forever
Well maybe I'm just too young
To keep good love from going wrong
Oh lover you should've come over
Cause it's not too late
Well I feel too young to hold on
And I'm much too old to break free and run
Too deaf dumb and blind to see the damage I've done
Sweet lover you should've come over
Oh love well I'm waiting for you
Lover you should've come over
Cause it's not too late
Lover, You Should've Come Over lyrics
