Come A TIme

He hid from the rain in a bookstore that day
The rain rolling down from his raincoat
He's too sick to run and right next to the gun
In his coat is a cheap Beaujolais

Come a time to tear the pictures from the wall
Catch a fire and watch it burn
Come a time to set your dreams aside a while
Come a time to come to terms

She threw on an old robe over her tattered lingerie
She closed all the blinds in the windows
She hides just for fun yeah she hides from the sun
Then she goes back to sleep for the day

You got to know when to give it up give it up give it up sometime
You got to stop beating a dead old dog
There's gonna come a time
Are you gonna be ready

Nine years ago in vain I called out your name
Out in the cold autumn moonlight
You died all alone by the side of the road
And I think I heard you're dying cries in the distant wind

Come a time to tear the pictures from the wall
Catch a fire and watch it burn
Come a time to set your dreams aside a while
Come a time to come to terms
