Knew You'd Come Around

(album: Highway Desperado - 2023)

I been here since they opened up the door
Before a bunch of boots filled up the floor
Cover band setting up and I was already two whiskeys in
Been drinking walls around this heart
I knew I'd need a good head start
Got me goodbye dust cloud gone and baby I ain't seen you since
But you always find me somehow

I knew you'd come around and lay those memories on me
Right there in the back of the bar in the dark when I'm lonely
There ain't no closing time
Getting over you ain't over
They're shutting off the lights for the night and I ain't one step closer
To wherever you are but you never let me down
I knew you'd come around

Yeah, I'm doing all I know to do
To not let that missing you get through
You gotta way of working on me put a hurting on me
Ain't nothing new
Damn girl why's it gotta be right now

I knew you'd come around and lay those memories on me
Right there in the back of the bar in the dark when I'm lonely
They're ain't no closing time
Getting over you ain't over
There shutting off the lights for the night and I ain't one step closer
To wherever you are but you never let me down
I knew you'd come around

I didn't think you'd leave but you did
I want you back but not like this
Ooh not like this

Yeah, I knew you'd come around and lay those memories on me
Right there in the back of the bar in the dark when I'm lonely
There ain't no closing time
Getting over you ain't over
They're shutting off the lights for the night and I ain't one step closer
To wherever you are but you never let me down
I knew you'd come around

I knew you'd come around
