Coming Back to You - Live
Maybe I'm still hurting
I can't turn the other cheek
But you know that I still love you
It's just that I can not speak
I looked for you in everyone
And they called me on that too
I lived alone but I was only
Coming back to you
They're shutting down the factory now
Just when all these bills are due
And the fields, they're under lock and key
Tho' the rain and the sun come through
And springtime starts but then it stops
In the name of something new
And all the senses rise against this
Coming back to you
And they're handing down my sentence now
And I know what I must do
It's another mile of silence while I'm
Coming back to you
There are many in your life
Oh, and many still to be
You are a late night love
You are shining light
So there's many that you'll see
And I've got to deal with my own envy
When you choose the precious few
Who've left their pride on the other side
Of coming back to you
Even in your arms
I know I'll never get it right
Even when you bend, when you bend to give me
Your sweet comfort in the night
Yes, I've got to have your word on this
Or none of it is true
And all I've said was just instead of
Coming back to you
I can't turn the other cheek
But you know that I still love you
It's just that I can not speak
I looked for you in everyone
And they called me on that too
I lived alone but I was only
Coming back to you
They're shutting down the factory now
Just when all these bills are due
And the fields, they're under lock and key
Tho' the rain and the sun come through
And springtime starts but then it stops
In the name of something new
And all the senses rise against this
Coming back to you
And they're handing down my sentence now
And I know what I must do
It's another mile of silence while I'm
Coming back to you
There are many in your life
Oh, and many still to be
You are a late night love
You are shining light
So there's many that you'll see
And I've got to deal with my own envy
When you choose the precious few
Who've left their pride on the other side
Of coming back to you
Even in your arms
I know I'll never get it right
Even when you bend, when you bend to give me
Your sweet comfort in the night
Yes, I've got to have your word on this
Or none of it is true
And all I've said was just instead of
Coming back to you
