Lyrics

Tired and wasted a faint smile is hasten as you lie
The pain through the years as we fought back the tears
There's no place to hide

Come as you are

How you see it is how it will turn out to be
Fear and despair needing more care
change insensibly

Come as you are

Take to the sky as you open your eyes
Your kids and your wife and your friends will be fine
The whole of your life will continue to shine
Just come, come as you are

The house, the bills, the climb, uphill all can wait
The need to be free, approaching decree of your fate

Come as you are

Take to the sky as you open your eyes
The air is so sweet you continue to smile
The whole of your life is endless in time
Come, come as you are

Take to the sky as you open your eyes
The kids and your wife and your friends will be fine
The whole of your life will continue to shine
Just come, come as you are
