Come On Over
Winans Phase 2 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If you're tired of all the pain
And you're hoping that the seasons change
It's time to rearrange
Come on over to the other side
If you're hurting from a broken heart
And you're searching for another start
Come on over to the other side
Now the party's come and gone
Been up all night long
Heard the same old songs
Still you feel alone
Is this how life should be?
Shame and misery
What can set you free
And make you happy?
[Chorus]
Crying tears of shame
Looking for new hope
Reaching for those friends
That left you long ago
Scoping out the world
For a better life
But if you look to him
He'll give you some insight
[Chorus]

The first time I heard this album was about fifteen years ago when I was heartbroken and going through a painful divorce...the songs spoke to me in a way that I knew God was with me during that time in my life..only the Holy Spirit could've anointed those songs for me the way He did to help bring healing to my heart...And now that I'm going through a second (even more painful) divorce, the Holy Spirit has allowed me to hear these beautiful songs again, after having not heard them for many years.
