Jellyfish - Baby Come Back/Baby's Coming Back lyrics

rate me

I knew that when I saw her

That my life would soon move over from the fast lane

Gone would be the days of all my drinkin' and my carryin' on

But when I settled down

The party king uncrowned

This stubborn memory hadn't faded

Too many dumb mistakes

And all the grief it makes

Left nothin' else to be debated

And if you say that you understand then you're lyin'

But if you figure that I'm alright now I can't deny it

Baby's comin' back

Baby's comin' back

So I'm on my best behavior

I can't take it anymore

I just woke up on the floor today, yeah yeah

I've long run out of my last chances but she's on her way

If I had a dollar

For every single time I fought her

I'd buy a handgun

(I'd buy a handgun!)

But that couldn't shoot away

The bullseye that she made on my heart

And if I sound like a beaten man well I guess so

But on her way is the sweetest prize and I can't let go

Baby's comin' back

Baby's comin' back

So I'm on my best behavior

I can't take it anymore

I just woke up on the floor today, yeah yeah

I've long run out of my last chances but she's on her way

What I told her on the telephone was that I'd been so bad

I wouldn't blame her if she mowed down these wild oats I'd sown

But when she said she'd give me one more chance

I said knock three times when you arrive

Baby's comin' back

Baby's comin' back

So I'm on my best behavior

I can't take it anymore

I just woke up on the floor today, yeah yeah

Baby's comin' back, my darlin,

Baby's comin' back, this evenin'

I've long run out of my last chances but she's on her way
