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
