On the day that we met you were packing your bags Getting ready to move far away You had so much to say you could not be contained You had to get out of the place And I fell in love with the sound of your smile Before I heard the sound of your voice I was staring at you in your bright baby blue You were leaving the room Come back, come back, come back You were in town for a couple of days One of which was the fourth of July So we sat in my yard and we stared at the sky It was the happiest day of my life Then you were off to Chicago and I couldn't follow So naturally I stayed behind And I laid in the grass for a year and a half And waited for you to Come back, come back, come back And I see my movies with another boy now And I wait to hear that secret sound And I listen for you talking to yourself From town to town Come back, come back, come back
