Come Back To You

My first heartbreak
The way we fell apart
You left me gasping for air
While you were busy living it up
During a temporary moment of frustration
I didn't want to come back to you

Attempts at finding other love
One fling here, one fling there
My heart disagreed with every woman I touched
And my mind flashed an image of us
I feel like I should come back to you

Then love blinded me with another
She was every bit of you
My feelings were thrown off
And it felt like she would fill the void in my soul
I thought I didn't have to come back to you

Sensitive my needs are
She treated me better than I've ever been treated
Her affections made me lose sight of you
Her exotic passion made me forget about you
I didn't need to come back to you

But it all came rushing back to me
Everything she did...reminded me of you
My explanations to her left me isolated
I was back in the predicament I started in
I think I need to come back to you

I finally get through to you with tears in my eyes
You find a reason to take me back
We patch up the lost pieces of our romance
We become one again
And I'll always come back to you
