lyrics

COME WHAT MAY

Come what may I'll stick around
I'll be the old and constant sound
A record playing in the other room
A rose that lingers with a constant bloom

Come what may I'll stick around
I'll be the only one in town
Who still believes in you
Come what may

Come what may no matter where you are
Or how they stare
Our love will linger like a fine perfume
A steady flame, a smokey plume
Come what may

I can see so clearly how they push you out of line
But honey they are blind to say
I'm foolish just to love you

It's absurd but so it goes
And why love lingers nobody knows
But rest assured I'm going to love you
Come what may

Come what may I'll stick around
I'll be the old and constant sound
A favorite chair, an empty room
A suit of clothes, a rose in June

Come what may I'll stick around
I'll be the only one in town
Who still believes in you
Come what may
