Thread: Come To You

This sat in a drawer for over twenty years, and tonight I suddenly added the four missing lines and finished it off.


COME TO YOU
by LintonRobinson

Copyright 1984 Wenatchee Girl Music

When the time has come
And not a heartbeat before
When I have it all ready and accounted for
When there's a change in the weather
And a turn of the tide
And I've got it all together
And can throw it all aside
When the time has gone
And there's nothing in store
And I find out I just can't take it no more

I will come to you
And then you will know
I'll come in like the winter
Like the blue eyes of snow
When I come to you
There'll be nowhere to hide
I will come like the fever
I will come without pride
I will come for you
I will come to you

When the pain is gone
And there's nothing to say
And I guess we never would have made it anyway
When a life’s worth of wonder
Has spilled over the dam
And my heart gets pulled under
By everything that I am
When my doubts are gone
And the devil's to pay
And I can't do without you even one more day

I will come for you
I will come for it all
I'll come like breaking of waves, girl
I'll come right over your wall
When I come for you
I won't have to explain
I will come like the thunder
Like the chill touch of rain
When I come for you, when I come for you

When the moon is full
And the sun burns through
And I've figured out exactly what I'm gonna do
When these words are all spoken
And these things are all done
And all the promises broken
But the very last one
When I wake up and dream
When I come out of the blue
When I get a certain feeling that I've got to have you

I will come for you
I will come for your life
Let me in but look out, girl
You know I cut like a knife
I will come for you
Like a spark down a wire
And you'd better be ready
You know I burn like a fire
I will come to you
I will come to you
I will come to you

20 years in the making, wow. I have a couple like that. Still waiting for that chorus or that bridge or whatever. This is a pretty good piece in that tough-love sort of fashion. Would make a nice little hardrock ditty.

I thought it was quiet beautiful......

Nice piece.....Has a nice tone and over all feel to it.. Kinda funny you forgot about for so long but regardless you did finish and very nicely I might add. Much enjoyed... I heard a nice little melody going the moment I started readying and then I sang to hear it better.... Sings very well too....

Fondly,
Miriam

Gonna send me a recording?
