Come as you are: Lay your body next to mine Your heart in my hands May my love and my silence inspire your soul Come as your are: While a memory still remains frozen in time And a word takes its meaning to my realm of oblivion Oh, come as you are! Come as you are: In your deathbed bespangled with roses and dandelion No more strains, no vendettas - all of this has gone now! Come as your are: Death's not more but a dream that seems so unreal Still the wind speaks your name when spring-time returns Oh, come as you are! No more tears to cry as the sea rolls on by No more lonely nights Yet an angel stands by your side Just come to me: The child and the man The fool and the sage that you are Oh, come as you are!
