lyrics

Come Ask Her


She'll meet you in the morning light
Please sit me by the pale light
Stand near but not too close
You know my hearing's getting worse

Come Ask Her
Come ask her
Come Ask her
Come ask her
And ask and ask
And ask & ask

Then wear your hair
In a silver bun
I've come to see you ancient
And dancing in the sun
But going there graceful
It was never your style
But going there graceful
Could never be your style
You had to go out kicking
And screaming mile to mile
Well

Come ask her
Come ask her
Come ask her
Come ask her
And ask & ask
Ask ask

Scream your secrets
The wind is waiting
Scream your secrets
They've come to bring you home

Scream your secrets
The wind is waiting waiting
Scream your secrets
They've come to bring you home

Scream your secrets
The wind it's waiting
Scream your secrets
They've come to bring you home

Come to bring you
Come to bring you
Come to bring us
Come to bring you
Home home home

And I wanted you to see
What had become of me
I wanted you to see
What could become of me
What has become of me

Come ask her
Come ask her
And ask and ask
Come ask her
Come ask her
And ask ask
And ask ask

I wanted you to see (and ask)
What has become of me (ask and ask)
I wanted you to see
What could become of me

Come Ask Her
And ask & ask
Why not
Come and ask her
And ask ask

Maybe all you want is an answer
All you wanted was an answer
Why didn't you ask her?
Oh
Come ask her
And ask and ask

But you may not get an answer
Come ask her
Come ask her
Try and try
And try & try

about

Bonfire Madigan image

Bonfire Madigan San Diego, California

Bonfire Madigan, AKA Madigan Shive, is one of my favorite musicians of all time. She clutches her cello like a life-raft, singing in gorgeous yelps and hums. It doesn’t really matter if you like the kind of music Bonfire Madigan sings, because she does it so soulfully and gracefully, you can’t help but stand there open mouthed, gawking at her vocals and cello.— JS The Mercury Pdx, OR ... more
