Come On Over lyrics

(Parton)

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you
Please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him
Just because you can

Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of amber green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your voice is soft like summer rain

(Diane Berglund/Jim Phillips)

You're going up and down, back and forth
You're on a wild pony ride
Pony run, run out the door

A free spirit, you hear it
Even the sun won't bring you down
Pony run, run like before

Night's coming, keep running
When will those moonbeams slow you down
Turn you 'round, let you believe

Run, pony, run, can you fly

(John Farrar/Hank Marvin)

Who's gonna shoe your pretty feet
Who's gonna hold your hand
Who's gonna take you out tonight
To listen to the band
Who'll be the one you love to love
Who's gonna make you glow
Who's gonna show you off tonight
When she takes you to the show

It'll be me
Babe, it'll be me
Coming for thee
Babe, coming for thee
In case there's any doubt

In the twilight glow I see you
Blue eyes cryin' in the rain
When we kissed goodbye and parted
I knew we'd never meet again
Love is like a dying ember
And only memories remain
And through the ages I remember
Blue eyes cryin' in the rain
Blue eyes cryin' in the rain

Someday, when we meet up yonder
We'll stroll hand in hand again
In a land that knows no parting

(G. Benson/D. Mindel)

Here we go
Breaking up what we have built
Leaving out all the things that we have felt
Where was I, where was I before you came
From the first time that I saw you
I thought

Maybe I
Maybe I did something wrong
How I tried
But the words won't fit the song
Found the door
But I could not find the key
From the first time that I saw you

(Rory Bourke)

Smile for me
Let me know that I will always be
The one and only one you'll always need
Baby, smile for me

Smile for me
Chase away the cloud that constantly
Is like a shadow hanging over me
Baby, smile for me

Smile your smile of total tenderness
Smile the smile that takes away the rain
Smile away my total emptiness
For I never wanna have to cry again

(John Farrar)

We never really had the chance to let each other know
We never really had the time to let our feelings show
Small talk kept us going
When the only words to say
Were how I long to hold you
Pride locked the words away

I never had the confidence to think that you could care
I never looked into your eyes to see if love was there

(Harlan Collins)

Understand I am afraid on my feet
Show me a seat
And give me a chance to recover my strength
And at length I will join in the dance
As you can see I'm all out of time
So scared to stand and swing with the band
Won't you give me your hand
You seem so strong and handsome to me
We'll dance

Wrap me in your arms again
Your touch is so much
It's enough

(Parton)

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you
Please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him
Just because you can

Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of amber green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your voice is soft like summer rain
