Bonnie Raitt, (born November 8, 1949) is an American blues/R&B singer, songwriter, and guitarist who was born in Burbank, California, the daughter of Broadway musical star John Raitt. Raitt began playing guitar at an early age, something not a lot of her high school girlfriends did. Later she would become famous for her bottleneck-style guitar playing. "I had played a little at school and at camp," she later recalled in a July 2002 interview. "My parents would drag me out to perform for my family, like all parents do, but it was a hobby—nothing more...I think people must wonder how a white girl like me became a blues guitarist.

Come to Me Lyrics
Bonnie Raitt
All I ever wanted
Was a love to be true
More than just enough to get me by
I want a love to see me through
I dont need another well spent night
Another clever, sideways glance
I wanna look my baby in the eye
And know theres nothin left to chance
So if youre tired of bein lonely
Beat up and confused
Darlin there is only
One thing you can do
Come to me
Ill be the one whos waiting
Come to me
I got what you need
Come to me
Wont be no hesitating
I know what you mean to me
Im gonna hold out for the one I want
Aint gonna settle for less
Cause the kind of love Im lookin for, baby
You cant fake, you cant finesse
I aint lookin for the kind of man, baby
Cant stand a little shaky ground
Hell give me fire and tenderness
And got the guts to stick around
So if youre tired of bein lonely
Beat up and confused
Darlin there is only
One thing you can do
Come to me
Ill be the one whos waiting
Come to me
I got what you need
Come to me
Wont be no hesitating
I know what you mean to me
