Come now baby girl
Tell me what you've seen
It's such a crazy world
It's never heard me dream
I didn't want to be the one to tell ya
Love isn't always what it seems
I think you know what I mean
I didn't want to be the one to tell ya
Didn't want to have to see you cry
I think we both know why
But maybe its not right
Hold your head up high
Dry your crying eyes
Take my hand, I'll help you stand
We'll be safe in the sweet by and by
We'll be safe in the sweet by and by
By and by
Come now precious child
You've got a reason to live
Could you give me a smile
Could you ever forgive
I didn't want to be the one to tell ya
Love isn't always what it seems
I think you know what I mean
I didn't want to be the one to tell ya
Didn't want to have to see you cry
I think we both know why
But maybe its not right
Hold your head up high
Dry your crying eyes
Take my hand, I'll help you stand
We'll be safe in the sweet by and by
We'll be safe in the sweet by and by
It's our only escape from
This God forsaken place
We can leave without a trace
What do you say
What's standing in your way
Hold your head up high
Dry your crying eyes
Take my hand I'll help you stand
We'll be safe in the sweet by and by
We'll be safe in the sweet by and by
