Gimme Back My Life

(album: Wilderness Road - 2019)

I was in the neighborhood
I'm hoping you don't mind
My troubling you to grab a few possessions
I might have left behind

My kind of blue
We'd slow dance to
Back in the day
A hat, a pair of shades
Oh yeah and baby by the way

Won't you gimme back my life?
Won't you hand me my heart?
You know those few loose odds and ends
Like the earth, the moon and the stars
Won't you give me back my world,
My sole reason to be?
Mind if I look around the place,
For the missing part of me?

Give me back those nights
Every kiss, every sigh
Just do that
And I will say goodbye

So sorry to intrude on you
Looking like such a mess
See, I packed my bags in such a rush
I forgot to pack my happiness

Won't you gimme back my life?
Won't you hand me my heart?
You know those few loose odds and ends
Like the earth, the moon and the stars
Won't you give me back my world,
My sole reason to be?
Mind if I look around the place,
For the missing part of me?

Give me back all those nights
Every kiss, every sigh
Just do that
And I will say goodbye
