You Come Around

I heard you’re back in town
And you’ve been askin’ about me
It’s messin’ with my mind
Thought you were better off without me
  
Seems like we go ‘round and ‘round
Same old story over and over
When I think I’m almost over you 
And the flame couldn’t get any colder
                 
You come around saying you need me
It’s wearing me down tryin’ not to believe it
Just when my heart is startin’ to see
That maybe there’s closure to be found
You come around you come around
  
I’m just a little more broken
Every-time you leave
Every word unspoken
Leaves a scar on me

Seems like we go ‘round and ‘round
Same old story over and over
When I think I’m almost over you 
And the flame couldn’t get any colder
                         
You come around saying you need me
It’s wearing me down tryin’ not to believe it
Just when my heart is startin’ to see
That maybe there’s closure to be found
You come around you come around

You come around saying you need me
It’s wearing me down tryin’ not to believe it
Just when my heart is startin’ to see
That maybe there’s closure to be found
You come around you come around
