Buddy Jewell - Back to You lyrics

rate me

In a brief an' open moment in an' ol' roadside cafe,

Just outside a-Memphis in the dyin' light of day.

My eyes must have betrayed me, 'cause it was you, I could have sworn.

And time came to a standstill,

As a brand new ghost was born:

Yeah, a brand new ghost was born.

How can you tell the river from the rain,

When so much of you an' me and us remains.

No matter what direction I go runnin' to,

It always comes back to you.

In the latest book I'm readin' in the crisp October air.

In a face I see in traffic; in some yet unwhispered prayer.

You are everything and everyone, and everywhere I go.

Hangin' like a morning mist,

That's burnin' off too slow:

You are burnin' off too slow.

How can you tell the river from the rain,

When so much of you an' me and us remains.

No matter what direction I go runnin' to,

It always comes back to you.

Just like I always did.

Remindin' me, I'm such a fool to ever let you go.

How can you tell the river from the rain,

When so much of you an' me and us remains.

No matter what direction I go runnin' to,

It always comes back to you.
