lyrics

PLEASE COME OUT

It's the time of year when doors don't fit well
Windows won't close, beaches fill with empty shells
You're tying ribbons all around your little finger
To remind you of all you have to do today, but...

Please won't you come out
Please won't you come out
There are stars and there are fireflies
Chase me down through the old town

I once called you the girl with the tiger inside her
Everybody's got to have a secret name
So if you feel you're coming apart at the seams
Maybe you weren't meant to be suited that way, anyway...

Please won't you come out
Please won't you come out
There are stars and there are fireflies
Chase me down through the old town

How did we get so derailed and distracted?
How long have we been sitting by the side of the road?
Do you think the wind stops to think about the pressure
As she makes a run from high to low?
oh no, so...

Please won't you come out
Please won't you come out
There are stars and there are fireflies
Chase me down through the old town
