Coming Back To You
(by Leonard Cohen)
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't 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
Ah they're shutting down
The factory now
Just when all the 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
Another mile of silence while
I'm Coming back to you
There are many in your life
And many still to be
Since you are a shining light
There's many that you'll see
But I have to deal with 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 to give me
Comfort in the night
I've got to have
Your word on this
Or none of it is true
And all I've said is just instead
Of Coming back to you
