Lyrics

VERSE
I hear you never can go home again
But after all this time, I just had to try
It seems like so long ago I can’t remember when
I left town, but I remember that you cried
Everyone said we were the perfect pair
Looking back, I can see it was true
And even though love was in the air
There were roads I had to travel; things I had to do

CHORUS
Now that I’m back, I know I have no right
To hold you at all, much less hold you tight
But here you are, such a beautiful sight
Reaching out to me, calling in the night
It’s way too long since I’ve been here
Let me wipe away your tears

VERSE
Oh, how I know that three long years have gone by
Since I bid you adieu and left for parts unknown
You said come back soon; your love would never die
I expected you’d be married with children of your own
On my knees, I beg forgiveness, swear I’ll never leave
There’s one thing I know is true; no one compares with you

Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/Repeat CHORUS/TAG
It’s good to be back; let me wipe away your tears
