Come back
Come on tell me you'll be coming back
Cause I know
Summer's got us dusty from the road
But it's high time we sail around
And celebrate the breaking of the clouds
And it's a fine wine to pass around
Even so it sometimes gets you down
I search for words to say
To keep your heart from breaking
But at the end of the day
I'm on the outside waiting
For you to come around
For you to come around
Sweetheart
Let's take a drive and ride beneath the stars
And drive slow
It's time to leave the past - let it go
Now it's high time we turn around
For soon the night will fall and bring us down
But this sad talk I won't recall
Cause underneath this sky we got it all
We got it all
I search for words to say
To keep your heart from breaking
But at the end of the day
I'm on the outside waiting
For you to come around
I search for words to say
To keep your heart from breaking
But at the end of the day
I'm on the outside waiting
(I hope you come around)
There's so much I could say
To keep your heart from breaking
(I hope you come around)
But at the end of the day
I'm on the outside waiting
For you to come around
