Lyrics
Back To The Blue
© 2016/Hank Thomas
Another week goes by, I don't hear from you
Now you're standing here at my door, just out of the blue
You say you're wanting to come back home, I don't know what I'm gonna do
Pre
Should I open up my arms, and say that I forgive,
Everything that you put me through
Should I let you in or send you back to the blue
Ch1
I've been holdin' out for you, I've been waiting up for you
Sleeping with my phone, so I wouldn't miss your call
Prayin' on it every day, ever since you left I've been
Hoping you would change your mind and soon
Should I let you in or send you back to the blue
V2
Not a single day went by I didn't think, this ain't no lie
I wondered if you ever really loved me all that time
I got so tired of holding on truth might be it's been too long
Now you're asking me to tell you everything's alright
Should I open up my arms, and say I forgive,
Everything that you put me through
Should I let you in or send you back to the blue
Ch2
I've been holdin' out for you, I've been waiting up for you
I thought I might be over you, but now i just don't know
Prayin' on it every day, ever since you left I've been
Hoping you would change your mind and soon
Should I let you in . . . Should I let you in . . ?
I've been waiting up for you, every night I cry for you
Thought I might be over you, but now I just don't know
I'm tired of all this emptiness, I need some lovin' tenderness
Seeing you like this just makes me crazy all inside
I've been holdin' out for you, I been waitin' up for you
Sleeping in my truck in case you call me for a ride
Should I let you in or send you, Should I let you in or send you
Should I let you in or send you back to the blue
