lyrics

Walked into the store one day and I swear to God
it was almost as if you were standing there
Phone rang through the back door and I turned my head
It was almost as if you were calling me

To say, ooh if you come back to me
don’t worry baby I’ll still be your friend
And ooh, if you come back to me
don’t worry baby I’ll still see you then
see you then, ooh ooh

Ooh, it’s the strangest thing
how the wind can blow it down but can’t be seen
Ooh, I guess it’s bound to happen someday
but it’s falling through the cracks again

If I had the chance to tell you, we’re all fading in the sun
If I had the chance to tell you, we’re all fading in the sun

Singing’ ooh, if you come back to me
don’t worry baby I’ll still see you then
And ooh, if you come back to me
don’t worry baby I’ll remember to live
don’t worry baby I’ll be in the wind
don’t worry baby I’ll still be in the wind
don’t worry baby I’ll be in the wind
don’t worry baby I’ll still be in the wind

Walked into the store one day and I swear to God
it was almost as if you were standing there
Phone rang through the back door and I turned my head
it was almost as if you were calling me
