Augustana - Comeback Story Lyrics

Augustana Lyrics

"Comeback Story"

I spent my twenties at the bottom of the bottle
The whisky only filled up til I was hollow
Now regrets a harder thing to swallow down
Ooo ooo ooo

Well every single day and night I wasted
I only wish I could go back and erase it
I'm gonna take it like a man and face it all
Ooo ooo ooo

Sometimes I get the feeling love is only just a breath away
Sometimes I get the feeling I can't find the words to say
I'm getting closer and I know I'm gonna make you mine
I'm getting closer but I'm gonna let you take your time

Oh oh oh oooohh
Oh nothings ever what it seems life's been good to me
Oh oh oh oooohh
Yeah you've been waiting here a long time walking on a thin line
Oh oh no pain no glory
Everybody likes a good comeback story

Every chance I had to love I rejected
Left my woman alone and neglected
Is our life too mangled to be mended now
Ooo ooo ooo

I was half a world away you were dying
Never looked into your eyes they were crying
Baby your the light in my life shining on
Ooo ooo ooo

Sometimes I get the feeling love is only just a breath away
Sometimes I get the feeling I can't find the words to say
I'm getting closer and I know I'm gonna make you mine
I'm getting closer but I'm gonna let you take your time

Oh oh oh oooohh
Oh nothings ever what it seems life's been good to me
Oh oh oh oooohh
Yeah you've been waiting here a long time walking on a thin line
Oh oh no pain no glory
Everybody likes a good comeback story

I know you wanna leave I'm begging you to stay
Cause this is too important just to throw it all away
Now I don't wanna ride this out too long babe

Stay with me for one more song

Sometimes I get the feeling love is only just a breath away
Sometimes I get the feeling I can't find the words to say
I'm getting closer and I know I'm gonna make you mine
I'm getting closer but I'm gonna let you take your time

Oh oh oh oooohh
Oh nothings ever what it seems life's been good to me
Oh oh oh oooohh
Yeah you've been waiting here a long time walking on a thin line
Oh oh oh no pain no glory
Everybody likes a good comeback story
Oh man I felt some pain and some glory
But everybody love's a good comeback story
