The Temptations
Come to Me
[Verse 1: Richard Street]
You say it's over between us
Now you want to be free
It comes as no surprise, I’ve seen it in your eyes
Each time you look at me

[Chorus: Richard Street & The Temptations]
No, I won't hold you back, no
I'll even help you pack
But if there’s ever any doubt, and things don't work out
Here I'll be, come to me
(I'll be there when you need me)
You just come to me
(I'll be there if you want me)

[Bridge: Richard Street & The Temptations]
Oh, listen, baby
Strange how love changes
I don't understand, it's a mystery to me
(Girl, it's a mystery; girl, it’s a mystery)
Things keep rearranging
But I guess that’s how it's meant to be
Oh, oh, oh, yeah, baby

[Verse 2: Damon Harris]
You say he’s something special
He's got looks, charms — oh, I can't compete with that
I don't know what more I could ever do
I’ll never be rich, and I'm the first to admit
I'm not that much to look at, no, no, no, no, no
[Bridge: Richard Street]
Oh, oh, but when the glitter has fallen
And you get lost between the porches
You can always come home
When you need a shoulder to cry on
Just call out to me

[Outro: Richard Street & The Temptations]
(I'll be there when you need me there by you)
Oh, oh yeah
(I'll be there if you want me there by you)
Baby, come on, talk to me
(I'll be there when you need me there by you)
Oh, oh yeah
(I'll be there if you want me there by you)
Oh, oh
(I'll be there when you need me there by you)
(I'll be there if you want me there by you)
If you need me, girl, there is no doubt
You'll never wear your welcome out
Come on back to me
(I'll be there if you want me there by you)
(I'll be there when you need me there by you) Hey
(I'll be there when you need me there by you) Hey
(I'll be there if you want me there by you) Oh, oh, oh
