Come My Way
I read a statistic that said in the past year, 70% of all marriages came about as a result of people meeting online. I was blown away by that statistic and came to the writing group with the concept of a song that describes what it would be like to meet the “cyber romance figure” in person for the first time. Will the excitement of the online romance continue in person and will true love ensue?
Lyrics
Neon lights reflect on city streets
Find myself running will we finally meet?
Words spin through me I try to slow the ride
But who cares, just let our hearts and minds collide
Come my way
and I’ll be sure to let you see the essence oh yeah
It’ll be, it’ll be okay
Come my way
Go on show yourself, yeah, peel away Come as you are, oh
It’ll be, it’ll be okay
Play it cool don’t let him see the fear
He takes my coat and makes a joke, I’m so glad we’re here
Suddenly I realize we’re not strangers at all
So familiar that my soul runs to the call
Come my way
and I’ll be sure to let you see the essence oh yeah
It’ll be, it’ll be okay
Come my way
Go on show yourself, yeah, peel away
Come as you are, oh
It’ll be, it’ll be okay
Time stands still
Seems it always will be
Loves young dream
Needs a constant stream to survive
Oh won’t you come my way
Wrapped in sudden silence, fingers start to play
Feeling breathless as your eyes they say
Come my way
and I’ll be sure to let you see the essence oh yeah
It’ll be, it’ll be okay
If you
Come my way
Go on show yourself, yeah, peel away
Come as you are, oh
It’ll be, It’s gonna’ be okay
Yeah if you come my way
Go on show yourself
Come my way
Can’t you see it’s me
Come my way
Feelin’ good inside
Come my way
Oh yeah baby won’t you
Come my way
Oh won’t you come my way
