"Come Away" lyrics

"Come Away"

Oh come away with me
I must leave today
Dawn will come, but I will run
And be never seen again

There's nothing here but echoes
It's a city full of ghosts
A version of myself
At every corner I knew most
My footsteps turning rotten
As my voice starts to decay
I'll only be forgotten
Like the shadows in this place

So come away with me
Won't you come away
Dawn will rise, but this time I
Will be never seen again
Oh come away with me
I must leave today
Dawn will come but I will run
And be never seen again

I took you for a sailor
For a man without a shore
You put me in a cage
It only made me want you more
I liked wearing the colours
That you planted on my skin
But none of it could keep you
From a mistress like the wind

So come away with me
Won't you come away
Dawn will rise, but this time I
Will be never seen again
Oh come away with me
I must leave today
Dawn will come but I will run
And be never seen again

(Aah ooh, aah, ooh)
Never, never, never, never seen again
(Aah ooh, aah, ooh)
Never, never, never

I made it through the winter
And I waited by the door
But this city and my sailor
They don't call for me no more
My friends moved to the suburbs
I'm the fool who stayed behind
A flower in the gutter
Seeing stars but losing time

So come away with me
Won't you come away
Dawn will rise, but this time I
Will be never seen again
Oh come away with me
I must leave today
Dawn will come but I will run
And be never seen again

(Aah ooh, aah, ooh)
Never, never, never, never seen again
(Aah ooh, aah, ooh)
Never, never, never
Never seen again
