Lover, You Should've Come Over

Jeff Buckley
Grace (1994)

Looking out the door i see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners      
Parading in a wake of sad relations as their shoes fill up with water
And maybe i'm too young to keep good love from going wrong
But tonight you're on my mind so you never know

When i'm broken down and hungry for your love with no way to feed it
Where are you tonight, child you know how much i need it
Too young to hold on and too old to just break free and run

Sometimes a man gets carried away, when he feels like he should be having his fun
And much too blind to see the damage he's done
Sometimes a man must awake to find that really, he has no-one

So i'll wait for you... and i'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return
Oh will I ever learn
                                                                                    Oh lover, you should've come over
                                                                                                'Cause it's not too late
                     Lonely is the room, the bed is made, the open window lets the rain in
                   Burning in the corner is the only one who dreams he had you with him
                             My body turns and yearns for a sleep that will never come

It's never over, my kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
It's never over, all my riches for her smiles when i slept so soft against her
It's never over, all my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
It's never over, she's the tear that hangs inside my soul forever
                                                                                        Well maybe i'm just too young

To keep good love from going wrong
 Oh... lover, you should've come over
'Cause it's not too late
                                                                                  Well I feel too young to hold on
                                                                        And i'm much too old to break free and run
                                                      Too deaf, dumb, and blind to see the damage I’ve done
Sweet lover, you should've come over
Oh, love well i'm waiting for you
                                                                               Lover, you should've come over
'Cause it's not too late
