Comes Back Around

I see it in your eyes, like a ghost in the room No matter how I hold you, it lingers in the gloom I built us a fire, tried to chase out the cold But the wind of my past keeps taking control I could bring you flowers, paint the sky in gold Say the perfect words, but the story's still told Every time we're laughing, every time we dance It comes back around - like a lost second chance Like a shadow in the daylight, like a whisper in the rain No matter how I try, it always calls your name Like an echo in the canyon, like a wave that won't stay down No matter where we go, it always comes back around I swore I would change, carved it deep in the stone But the river keeps running where it's already known I hold you so close, but the space still remains Like a song that keeps playing the same old refrain I could bring you flowers, paint the sky in gold Say the perfect words, but the story's still told Every time we're laughing, every time we dance It comes back around - like a lost second chance Like a shadow in the daylight, like a whisper in the rain No matter how I try, it always calls your name Like an echo in the canyon, like a wave that won't stay down No matter where we go, it always comes back around I can't outrun it, can't turn the page Love's a wildfire, but so is the pain If there's a way to break the chain Tell me now, I'll take the blame Like a shadow in the daylight, like a whisper in the rain No matter how I try, it always calls your name Like an echo in the canyon, like a wave that won't stay down No matter where we go, it always comes back around
