Ceramic tile fluorescent, yellow iodine I can feel your presence Sedated by the heavy medicine And come around, come around, come around The flowers aren't worth keepin', roses broke my skin I'll pretend you're sleepin' Or you fainted from the lack of oxygen And come around, come around Don't leave me here to let you down Now I'm goin' home And I've been patient, I've waited a lifetime Now I'm goin' home And I am tired of waitin' a lifetime Sentimental letters, brightly colored ink Sayin', 'Please get better' I'll place them by the lilies in the sink And come around, come around Don't leave me here to let you down Now I'm goin' home And I've been patient, I've waited a lifetime Now I'm goin' home And I am tired of waitin' a lifetime If you could feel it, I'd give a kiss If it would get through, I'd whisper this Not while you're sleepin' In my safe keepin' Faded iridescence from your silhouette A stare illuminescent I haven't given up on you just yet And come around, come around Don't leave me here to let you down Now I'm goin' home And I've been patient, I've waited a lifetime Now I'm goin' home And I am tired of waitin' a lifetime Now I'm goin' home And I've been patient, I've waited a lifetime Now I'm goin' home I am tired of waitin' a lifetime Now I'm goin' home
