OpenMic Songwriters Challenge Week #2 - You Came Back

in #openmic7 years ago (edited)

Staying committed to this contest is crazy...it kind of haunts you until you write a song, but then you do end up with a new song. Anyway, thanks to @meno & @luzcypher for putting it together, hoping for that guitar! This is my entry for week 2 of the OpenMic Songwriters challenge, it's called You Came Back.

Lyrics:

Never wonder where I am
I’ve gotta find myself again

You can live
You can breathe
But you can’t wait…so

I’ll grab the keys
And crank the engine
Drive all day
To make it back to you

You came back for one more day
We thought you had lost your way
You came back for one more day
We thought you had lost your way

I can tell you that you are
In the center of my heart

You can live
You can breathe
But you can’t wait…so

(chorus)
