[Verse 1]
You were sandy like the desert
Your hair grew wild like summer gra**
You moved slowly through the city thinking time could never pa**
And your eyes were like the morning light your gaze the sparkling sea
Love love, love love come back to me
[Verse 2]
Oh I learned to love you slowly
Like a bird using its wings
And I'll learn to live without you even
Slower now it seems
And your kiss was like a moonbeam in a small town summer stream
Love love, love love come back to me
[Chorus]
Cause I've searched the surface of the moon and the shadows of the afternoon
But all I find is an empty rhyme and I can't find you
[Verse 3]
Well I can't sleep without you
Cause that's when the demons come
And i hurt myself like you hurt me you showed me how its done
I can't (am) stand the thought of leaving feels like firing a gun
Love love, love love come back to me
[Chorus]
Cause I've searched the surface of the moon and the shadows of the afternoon
But all I find is an empty rhyme and I can't find you
[Verse 4]
And your eyes were like the morning light your gaze the sparkling sea
And they turned into a mirror to a different side of me
I held on to you like gold; turns out you cannot hold the sea
Love love, love love come back to me
