Now You Come Back

Well you said goodbye and good luck in your Dear John letter
And I thought I'd die 'cause I thought we were carved in stone
And it made me cry as I walked through the clear cold weather
Hey, and then I dried my eyes and I tried living all alone
Well the clouds piled high and the snow didn't make things better
As the time crawled by I went down through a dark ordeal
Then to my surprise there blew a breeze from the springtime heather
Hey, and as it breathed on me I could feel how my heart could heal

Now you come back just when everything's better
Now you come back just when everything's great
Now you come back but I've got it together
Now you come back, it's just a little too late

Count up the seasons, count up the months
Count up the days you've been gone
I was a grieving fool for you once
But now you've been gone for too long

And you just drop by on a night with a full moon shining
And you just say hi and you ask if I'm by myself
Well you might think I'm still the same fool you left here pining
Hey, but I'm a brand new guy and I suggest you go somewhere else

Now you come back just when everything's better
Now you come back just when everything's great
Now you come back but I've got it together
Now you come back, it's just a little too late

Now you come back just when everything's better
Now you come back just when everything's great
Now you come back but I've got it together
Now you come back, it's just a little too late
