The One I Want Will Come for Me

Lyrics for The One I Want Will Come for Me

The first sip did the trick, I'd burn down every other ship To taste from you again, I'll wait here for you at the end We're held apart by time I still hear your voice ring in my mind I'll watch you from afar, to remember the boy you are We were violent, beautiful things As young as hours, as poor as thieves So splendid in our liberty Bejeweled in the bones of tyranny Kiss me before it's too late before the morning when I wake Remember me that's all I ask Because this world sure won't love me back Can you hear me when I dream? You are much further than it Seems Love is an island on the sea The one I want will come for me In this world they make you pay for what you give and what you Take We took it all and in our wake we left a love they couldn't break I won't get back the things they took but understand by hook or crook I'll live a free life while I stand And face their teeth and stare right back
