Lyrics:
Won’t you come with me
Ivory
Cos I want you to see
You and me
And I know that this world is strange
It feels like we ain’t got a chance
And darkness may appear too many times
Now I’m asking you to try
To think about you and I
Cos we shouldn’t be apart
Open up to me
Ivory
Let’s sail out on the sea
You and me
Please don’t take half as bad
This feeling we have never had
Let’s get back and try once again
Now I’m asking you to try
To think about you and I
Cos we shouldn’t be apart
Won’t you come with me
Ivory
You and me
Won’t you come with me
Ivory
Cos I want you to see
You and me
