Love comes to me
Bonnie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Whoa, oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, baby
Mmm-mmm

Well, in the beginning it was just for fun
Now you got me runnin' from sun to sun
Well, the funny thing, baby, is that I don't mind
You know a real good thing sure is hard to find

That's why I'm singing a song
Oh yeah, yeah
Oh no, no
Oh my, my
Here comes love again

Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh no, no
Ooh, my, my
Here comes love again

So you thought you left the game
But you're fallin' just the same
Well, some things don't ever change
Here comes love again

Chicken and dumplings, that's all it's gonna take
Just to make you stay for the ice cream cake
You think you don't want sugar, baby, in your tea
Mmm, honey, but the right kind of sugar, yeah, yeah, we'll see

That's why I'm singing a song
Oh, yeah, yeah
Whoa, oh no, no
My, my here comes love again
Woo, oh (oh yeah, yeah)
Oh no, no
Oh my, my

You're all out of tokens, think you're out of the game
But a kind soul'll come around and buy you right back in
Ooh, you wanna jump off that train and stay a while in town
But don't you know long as the world keeps turnin'




Love is comin' 'round
It's comin' around

@flynnfriend

He is one of the most underappreciated singers/songwriters of our time. There is so much subtlety in all he does. His music is soft and beautiful but harsh at the same time.

@felicity8203

Thank you for this wonderful dreamlike video that complements this beautiful song. I enjoy it every time ❤️

@letmetellyousomething123

This man is a legend. His sheer use of language and voice is unmatched in my opinion. Sharp,intelligent and there's a magic there that can't be explained where true Art comes from. He warms my spirit like no other.

@lerakelemen1801

your dancing at the river is one of the most loveliest ways to love this song

"Out of reach of flowers and soap".
I take courage from that line because no matter how depressed and low we can go it's possible that love will come to me.
Hope springs eternal.
