You're Back
(The Maybees)
I woke up so impelled today
My eyes were shut
my mind was blown away
as a voice in the clock said,
"monday, don't be late"
I lingered on my bed till ten,
I brushed my teeth, hair, tongue and then
as usual I had go to work
You song was playing on the radio
Missed you so much
I felt so lone and cold
I thought,"I have to change the car brakes,
for they're so noise and becoming rather old"
And as the traffic lights turned red
I didn't notice,
didn't stop the car in time
and then the crash was loud and strong
but I still heard your song.
I felt the blood in my forehead,
then I thought, "oh, my god, I'm dead!"
As someone from the other car came yelling at me,
your song was playing from the skies,
and as I turned my head I said:"It's so good to be alive!"
You were back and you found me almost dead.
Was it god who drove your car
to collide in mine in a crowded street,
half past ten a.m.?
We left our cars in traffic jam,
we crossed the streets,
walked hand in hand and as I kissed you
all the people stopped and sang,
your song came through our ears,
oh, it's so good to have you back after all these years
