COME BACK AND SEE ME LYRICS
He Ain’t You (H. Constant)
If I told him that my heart’s not his
Would he know it’s been true since the day that we met
If I was finally honest
Start breaking my promise just like I knew I would
Chorus
He doesn’t like runnin’ in the rain and kissin’ in the grass and watchin’ those fireflies dance
He can’t tell me what it’s like to stargaze at night and reach out and grab my hand
Woah, he’s got his good side too
But darlin’ he ain’t you
When I drove around town last night
I saw ghosts of you under every street light
You’re still on every corner
Wish I could somehow warn her that girl I used to be
Chorus
I should have told you
I never should have run
How did we get here
Don’t you know you’re the only one
Wise Words (H.Constant)
I told my darlin’ momma I was movin’ to the West Coast
I barely gave her notice, but she still let me go
I told her I was scared and asked if things would be alright
She looked into my eyes and said “girl, you’re gonna shine”
Chorus:
Just like my momma told me I’ve been doin’ a-okay
And even though I struggle all my worries melt away
When I walk into the night and see the stars above my head
Just thinkin’ of my momma and all those wise words she said
She said don’t forget your family and patience is a virtue
And never take for granted, the gifts that God gave you
Be aware of your surroundings and always try to smile
The world will try to knock you down, but you’ll be here for a while
Chorus
Momma you’re so beautiful inside and out
We’re gonna be just fine oh of that I have no doubt
We’ll pull through like we always do, just like we were destined
I love you way up to the sky more than you can imagine
Chorus
No (H.Constant)
I know you feel something
But I can’t just wait for you
And I know you’re still hurting
But what good does it do you?
You’re like water just waiting to boil
You’re like a flower still stuck in the soil, oh
Life keeps moving but you wave it on by
And I’m really sorry but I’m done asking why, oh
Chorus: Take one last look at what you could have had
You won’t say it but you got it bad, for me
You ain’t movin’ so I’ll prob’ly go
You ask me if I can stay, well the answer is no
I’ve given way to many chances for you to take
So why do I keep fishing when you won’t just take the bait
You’re like a car but the gas pedal’s broken
I’m at the arcade, but you won’t take my token, oh
You’re like a fire that only gives smoke
Feel like I just got paid, but I’m still broke
(Chorus)
Bridge: No you can’t have what you’re too afraid to ask for
And no, I won’t settle for only half of your heart
Yes, you can meet me at my throne
But you should have known I was a queen from the start
Take one last look at what you could have had
You should prob’ly say it cuz you got it bad
(Chorus)
Same Ol Same (H.Constant)
Sittin on the porch just snapping green beans
Waiting for the fields to turn so green
Momma’s in the kitchen cookin too much corn pudding
And daddy’s in the yard just rakin and mowin
Chorus:
Same ol same in ol Virginia
Same ol same as it ever was
Nothin’s changed in ol Virginia
But it’s where I come from
The ladies workin hard just cookin in the kitchen for the pickin party on Friday night
We’ll see how many people show up this time cuz of small town drama someone got in a fight
The folks gettin drunk at the bar last night, are the same folks at church trying to teach me what’s right
Momma puts a rose on her mom and daddy’s grave, well they ain’t missin much just the same ol same
Chorus
Laura Lee and momma at the antique shop
Gosspin and laughin til the sun comes up
Betty Rae’s havin two more kids and Bobby Jean’s addicted
Never saw it comin wish someone did
They ask her how I’m doin down in old Nashville,
She says I’m fightin for my singin and I always will
Chorus
Bridge
There’s a dollar store at the stop light now
Big ol change for this small town
There’s a winery across from the trailer park
Oh on my soul it’s left its mark
Chorus
Roses and Guitars (H.Constant)
It’s not all roses and guitars
Sometimes a town leaves scars
And it’s not always easy to go
You plant your seed somewhere
You start over if you dare
But it’s not all roses and guitars
Sometimes you’ll feel selfish
Most times you’ll feel foolish
For thinking that you knew what was best
But there’s a light on the horizon
If you choose to set your eyes on
The things you’ve learned so far
But it’s not all roses and guitars
And even though you make it
Your only job to fake it
You’re so tired of being kind at heart
You might feel like shutting down
And closing everyone out
Because the wine is better company than they are
Oh it’s not all roses and guitars
Wake Up From You (H.Constant)
What would you do if I said I wanna touch you
What would you do if I said I need you now
What would you do if I moved a little closer
Would you tell me to go or would you not make a sound
Chorus:
Cuz I gotta be real, I gotta be honest
Lovin’ the way I feel when I’m next to you
Tell me you’re feelin’ this or maybe I’m dreamin’
And if I am, I don’t wanna wake up from you
Show me all the ways that you say you wanna love me
Whisper in my ear all the things you wanna do
Cuz I don’t even care right now I’m in the moment
So don’t tell me to go, no don’t make a sound
Chorus
Don’t you wanna know how far this can go
Don’t you wanna see how good we can be
Do you really want to wake up from me?
Chorus X2
Come Back and See Me (H. Constant)
I don’t correct people when they think we’re related
I never tell them we don’t share blood
The more I think about it
You’re closer than some family ever was
Chorus:
So if you wanna come back, know my heart is open
And if you wanna reach out, my hand could use some holding
I know I go back and forth with being at peace
But if you want to, come back and see me
We made fairytales come alive in your backyard
Watch the sun go down on those blue swings
I couldn’t wait to get home
Now I’m not sure that I’d ever leave
Chorus
Time is a black and white photo
And you freeze it frame by frame
Then when it gets broken
You can’t stay the same
