Come On, Aphrodite

[Verse 1: Natalie Merchant]
Come on Aphrodite, you goddess of love
Come on Aphrodite, from that mountain above
Come on Aphrodite, I’m begging you, begging you
I’m begging you please

[Verse 2: Abena Koomson-Davis]
Come on Aphrodite, can’t you see that I’ve been patient?
Come on Aphrodite, can’t you see how long I’ve waited?
Come on Aphrodite, can’t you see that I’m wasting
I’m wasting away

[Chorus: Natalie Merchant and Abena Koomson-Davis]
Won’t you come from the sea? (Won’t you come from the sea?)
Oh, appear to me!
Won’t you come from the sea? (Won’t you come from the sea?)
Oh, appear to me!

[Verse 3: Natalie Merchant and Abena Koomson-Davis]
Come on Aphrodite, see me down on my knees (down on my knees)
Come on Aphrodite, part the waves for me (part the waves for me)
Come on Aphrodite, I’m begging you, begging you
I’m begging you please

[Verse 3: Abena Koomson-Davis]
Come on Aphrodite, I’ve been nothing but true
Come on Aphrodite, I believe in you
Come on Aphrodite, from the mountain, from the sea
Gather up your secrets, come on, bring them to me

[Chorus: Natalie Merchant and Abena Koomson-Davis]
Won’t you come from the sea? (Won’t you come from the sea?)
Oh, appear to me!
Won’t you come from the sea? (Won’t you come from the sea?)
Oh, appear to me!
Appear to me!
Appear to me!
Appear to me, oh
[Both]
Come on!

[Horn Instrumental]

[Bridge: Natalie Merchant and Abena Koomson-Davis]
Come on, queen of the garden of earthly delight
Goddess of passion and giver of life
Oh, come to me
Oh, come to me

Come with your rapture, come with your pain
Come if you hear me; I’m calling your name
Oh, come to me
Oh, come to me

Make me head over heels, make me drunk, make me blind
Over the moon, half out of my mind
Oh make me weak in the knees; tremble inside
Give up easy and swallow my pride
[Both]
Oh, make me, make me love
Oh, make me, make me love
Oh make me...can you make me love?

[Outro: Natalie Merchant and Abena Koomson-Davis]
Flower of the ocean, pearl of the sea
Daughter immortal, come to me
Oh, come to me
Oh, come to me

Come and rise from the water, walk on the sand
Goddess of beauty, take my hand
Oh, come to me
Oh, come to me
Oh, come to me
