Come now baby girl
Tell me what you've seen
It's such a crazy world
This never ending dream
I didn't wanna be the one to tell ya
Love isn't always what it seems
I think you know what I mean
I didn't wanna be the one to tell ya
Didn't wanna have to see you cry
I think we both know why
But maybe it's not right
Hold your head up high
Dry your crying eyes
Take my hand, I'll help you stand
We'll be safe in the sweet by and by
We'll be safe in the sweet by and by
Come now precious child
You've got a reason to live
Could you give me a smile?
Could you ever forgive?
I didn't wanna be the one to tell ya
Love isn't always what it seems
I think you know what I mean
I didn't wanna be the one to tell ya
Didn't wanna have to see you cry
I think we both know why
But maybe it's not right
Hold your head up high
Dry your crying eyes
Take my hand, I'll help you stand
We'll be safe in the sweet by and by
We'll be safe in the sweet by and by
It's our only escape from
This God forsaken place
We can leave without a trace
What do you say?
What's standing in your way?
Hold your head up high
Dry your crying eyes
Take my hand, I'll help you stand
We'll be safe in the sweet by and by
We'll be safe in the sweet by and by
Well, safe in the sweet by and by
Yeah yeah, we'll be safe in the sweet by and by
