Come on You Lovers

Original Song by James Humphries

"Come on You Lovers"

Come on you lovers, open your ears,
you've heard me cryin all along,
Think of the others, think of their tears,
They must be doing something wrong.
I can picture her freely,
If you gave me the chance
Id like to think of her this way
So do yourself good, like I know that you could,
While I'm just counting all the days
Come on you lovers, take off your hoods,
'Cause life ain't always as easy, as you say.

I left all my papers, I left my toupee,
I left my hundred dollar slacks,
When tolerance tapers, well some people say,
That you wont never get it back.
He said, Jack you're the demon,
And If you didn't know,
All the prophets did fortell,
And I'm sorry it seems, that you die in your dreams
And you wake up all alone in hell
Come on you lovers, cut off the strings,
'Cause life don't always go, so well.

The ice in the window, the speed of the storm,
My waking hours lose their worth,
It's hard to pretend though, my feet are so worn,
'Cause I've run circles 'round this earth.
And my thoughts are in orbit,
But my soul has been slammed,
There's ashes falling on my hair.
And the fire it snips, at my face and my lips
But I can't even tell you that it's there.
Come on you lovers, cash in your chips,
'Cause life don't always, play so fair.

great job man, but it really hurts me to see someone with your talent just throwing it away by cutting your hair like Dylan, dressing like Dylan, singing like Dylan,, Come on boy. Be yourself. Drop the Harp, and the hair, and the voice, and the dress.. Be yourself and do this video again. God bless you.

I'd listen further, but I like original people. And Bob D is not a favorite. Be yourself man.

James - you were born 45 years too late. Or, maybe 10 years too early. Either way, a beautiful song.
