"Back To You" lyrics

"Back To You"

Well I gambled my last dollar on a girl in a sequin dress
I was just outside of Philly trying to thumb my way back west
In a dirty bathroom mirror, I tried to cut myself off
I was always all or nothing and my courage keeps getting lost
All the words you said to me came back on the drive
Couldn't bear to bring myself inside because I'm barely alive

Oh darling mine, oh I'm going to make it back to you
I'm going to make it back to you
Oh darling mine, oh I'm going to make it back to you
I'm going to make it back to you

I keep waking up with cold sweats they've been tearin' me at my seams
I wish missing you was easier than you've been missing me
All the anger in my bloodline had me going for my knife
I felt guilty, I felt crazy, I cried the rest of the night
Every time I turn around I see the look in your eyes
Couldn't bear to bring myself inside because I'm barely alive

Oh darling mine, oh I'm going to make it back to you
I'm going to make it back to you
Oh darling mine, oh I'm going to make it back to you
I'm going to make it back to you

You could call me in the morning just to see if I'm all right
You could tell me that you love me even if I know it's a lie
I'll keep driving in the direction that my home used to be
But it's just a worn-out picture dancing like a faded magazine
And every time I look outside I feel like I'm losing my mind
Couldn't bear to bring myself inside because I'm barely alive

Oh darling mine, oh I'm going to make it back to you
I'm going to make it back to you
Oh darling mine, oh I'm going to make it back to you
I'm going to make it back to you
