Come by, my love
Sit with me for a while
Tell me everything if you like
So I can hear the voice of John Alan

Fifty years ago, Brother died
words of love left behind
quiet questioning, no reply
you reach for me and try

I can see mountains off in the distance
I can see love from here to there

Was he gentle too? Was he kind?
Quick to laugh? Maybe shy?
Do you wonder now, was he right?
You were all alone at night
Could you cry? Could you see a thing?
Could I hold you now?

When you reach for me and try
I can see mountains off in the distance
I can see love from here to there

Come by me, my love, it’s all right
Tell me everything on your mind
Cause I love your voice
I still hear that voice
And I want to hear your sweet voice and John Alan
