Come See Me Lyrics


It's a midsummer night hour
And I'm thinking about you, babe, wanting you
I wish you could catch a jet plane
I know you would if only you could
But finances ain't what we'd like
And sometimes we have to sacrifice
'Coz I know, it's hard over there where you are
'Coz it's raining over here on the inside of my room
Passion and desire, baby
Innumerable fires, honey
Oh, I got for you, you know that it's true
Come see me
I feel like I've been waiting eternity
For you to touch me
I can see it in my mind's eye
How right and true this love will make
And ooh, if you ever believed in anything
Believe this is true

I am your woman, baby
And you are my man too
Passion and desire, baby
Innumerable fires, honey
Yes, I got for you, you know that it's true
Come see me
I ain't got no questions in my mind
No feelings of doubt
I believe I've just been waiting all this time
To find out what love's about
And I'm so excited and a little scared
Thinking I'm gonna get overwhelmed every where
Oh baby, I wanna be overwhelmed
I wanna be overwhelmed, I wanna be
I wanna feel passion and desire, baby
Yes, innumerable fires, honey
Ohh, I got for you, you know that it's true
Come see me as soon as you can
I wanna feel passion and desire, baby
Innumerable fires for you
I, I got for you, you know that it's true
Oh, come see me right now
I can hardly stay in my skin
It's hard to breath out and in
All this passion, all this desire
C'mon, c'mon, come see me right now

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
