Lyrics
I Just Came Back To Get My Heart
You held me like you'd never know
If you would stay forever or let me go
A day in love, and then a night in tears
They weren't the best of times, that's why I'm here
Those dreams we shared, you tore apart
I just came back to get my heart
You think it's fair to carry on
As if we're friends forever while love is gone
Don't get this wrong, I'm not here to stay
The man who's standing here, has this to say
Those dreams we shared, have come apart
I just came back to get my heart
There's no flame burning, I just had to see
What was left of the promise you weren't willing to keep
And so it goes, I fade away
If you had played this better, I might have stayed
But truth is all I needed then
A little lie for nothing and that was the end
Those dreams we shared, you tore apart
I just came back to get my heart
Those dreams we shared, you tore apart
I just came back to get my heart
