Back to Me

I left your sweater hanging over the chair That stained glass heart in the windowpane Your boots a reminder of way back then When you and I would dance in the rain Near the spot where those plumerias grow Ruby still waits for you by the open door That stuffed duck you got her, nearby on the floor Come back to me, it can be just like before You don't owe me a reason, it wasn't a crime You don't owe me for all the lost time I just left a small light on for you to see If you find yourself driving past my street If you find yourself wanting to meet Find your way, come back to me, come back to me The garden grew the way you said it would The mint bullied everything in reach I picked the lemons just to feel near you You used to sell them a buck fifty a piece I wear a fake smile just like a costume Masquerade every day to get by I still smell the scent of your perfume And I still see your eyes in blue skies You don't owe me a reason, it wasn't a crime You don't owe me for all the lost time I just left a small light on for you to see If you find yourself driving past my street If you find yourself wanting to meet Find your way, come back to me, come back to me And maybe it's not you I'm waiting for Maybe it's the man I was back then The one who laughed before he learned the cost The one who couldn't face the where and when You don't owe me a reason, it wasn't a crime You don't owe me for all the lost time I just left a small light on for you to see If you find yourself driving past my street If you find yourself wanting to meet Find your way, come back to me, come back to me Find your way, take your time, come back to me Find your way, take your time, come back to me
