about

This is a song I wrote about all the people in my life who I've cared about and had to let go of. Some people are lots of fun to be around, but ultimately can't give you what you need in a relationship. But the memories keep coming back to me.

Thanks to Derica Scott for playing keys for me here. Check out her music on band camp at bandcamp.com/darciacus

lyrics

You keep on coming back, coming back
C-c-coming back, coming back
C-c-coming back, coming back
C-c-coming back, coming back…

You grabbed on to me
When we were young
You sprung a leak in me
And we had fun
In sleepless nights of snow
I smoked the bitter cold
I drank the warmest ale
And you were on my tail
But when the sun comes up
There’s nothing in this cup
For you and me… but…

You keep on coming back, coming back
C-c-coming back, coming back
C-c-coming back, coming back
C-c-coming back, coming back
Keep on coming back, coming back
C-c-coming back, coming back
C-c-coming back, coming back
C-c-coming back, coming back
Back to me

You always needed me
Like a dog
I guess I need it too
I could not stop
But when the gloves come off
There ain’t no love that tough
I watched you cry and scream
Behind a smiling screen
But when the sun goes down
On this trumped up town
It’s just you and me

CHORUS
I heard the angels sing
I heard the church bells ring
I saw the ocean part
I held a beating heart
I felt the sunset burn
As my soul returned
And you were nowhere to be found

CHORUS X2
