[Verse 1]
So hard sayin' my mistakes with you in front of me
At the risk of you judgin' me, but I'll attempt an apology, ah
Like the planets are indifferent to astrology
I was distant to monogamy
Tried to break up the monotony, oh, babe
Now I know sameness was stability
And I maimed it, now it's killin' me
Swear the ego is the enemy, oh, yeah, yeah
And believe me, I've been regrettin' it
Though I used to mince words for the hell of it
I mean these, no embеllishment
[Chorus]
You can come back (Oh), oh
You can come back
Thеre's no better time
I'll leave on the lights
You can come back, baby
You can come back (Oh)
(You can come back) Oh
You can come back
(You can come back)
There's no better time
I'll leave on the lights
You can come back
[Verse 2]
I lowered my defenses for the evening (For the evening)
I shouldn't have ever listened to the demons (Listened to the demons)
Tellin' me I should get any more than you receive (More than you receive)
Who knew that inner voice was a master of deceit?
As I lay here in defeat
20/20 hindsight, can see
How that tall and sturdy fortress
Was really built on broken beams
If a new Big Bang's the remedy
Could your star burn bright for me?
Not a lone one, but a new one
Home sweet home, galaxy
[Chorus]
Baby, you can come back (Oh), come
You can come back
There's no better time
I'll leave on the lights
You can come back, baby (Back, baby)
You can come back (Oh)
(You can come back) Oh
You can come back
(You can come back)
There's no better time
I'll leave on the lights (Leave on the lights)
You can come back (Come back)
[Bridge]
Come back
Come back, baby
Come back
Come back, baby
Come back
Come back, baby
Yeah
[Outro]
You were alone in the raft when the riptide crashed
But you can always (Come back)
Said you were pushin' to the sands of the coast
Not some open waters and
Won't be no sittin' duck
Or no canary in a coal mine upstream
Still reelin' from that last hit of dopamine
Though it is what it is, never what it seems
On the other side, you know I got ya

I put the lyrics of ‘Comeback.’ together from pages of notes I had typed up late at night and saved on my computer (and didn’t really want anyone else to read). I was having some trouble finding a spark of inspiration and at the same time, I had these small bits and pieces of early 2000s R&B flo...
