You came to me (Texas Eddy – duet between Prudence and Eddy)

What did it take to see the light of day?
I was a fancy pearl, an oyster in the bay
Just when I’d given up and headed for the sea
You came to me.

The moment I sing a sad song
The words melt away it doesn’t take me long
To realise that all my rage belongs to another age
Thank God, you came to me.

I sought my answers in the wind
Asking: ‘when does life begin?’
Was out of tune, and out of touch
Had no next of kin.

First a boy, then a man
How could fate have dealt a hand?
If thing are meant to be,
Why give us the eyes to see?

Suddenly life was all over
Like a well gone dry
Nobody said to come on over
People passed me by
I wished for the right company
Someone magically connected to me.

What did it take to see the light of day?
What did it take to see the forest from the trees?
Just when I’d given up and headed toward to sea
You came to me.

What did it take to see the light?
What did it take to set me free?
My life was over then you came to me…
