Come Around
Longing for Love Lost: 'Come Around' by Tony Lucca
Lyrics
yeah I used to be the one that you'd run straight to
Expressing a past connection where the speaker was someone the person would seek comfort from.
now you never come around
Noticing a change in behavior, as the person no longer visits or interacts as before.
holding hands, making plans, just me and you
Recalling moments of intimacy and future plans that are no longer a part of the relationship.
now you never come around
Reiterating the absence of the person in the speaker's life now.
you drew a line
Describing a boundary set by the person, expecting the speaker to cope and move on.
thinking I'd be fine
Believing that the speaker would handle the situation well.
you got me out of my mind
Expressing emotional distress and confusion caused by the separation.
now it's high time I find something that might
Acknowledging the need to find a solution to make the person understand.
help you understand
Highlighting the necessity for the person to comprehend the speaker's feelings.
if you come back to me I'll make you see
Offering a promise that if the person returns, they will realize the speaker's value.
no there ain't gonna be a better man
Claiming that there won't be a better partner than the speaker.
yeah you used to call me crazy when I sang off key
Recalling a time when the person viewed the speaker as eccentric for singing imperfectly.
now you never come around
Pointing out the current absence of the person despite the shared memories.
nothing quite as sweet as you right next to me
Expressing the unmatched sweetness of being close to the person, which is now absent.
now you never come around
Reiterating the theme of the person's absence in the speaker's life.
yeah you drew a line
Referring to the boundary drawn by the person, suggesting a need for space.
guessin' you need some time
Speculating that the person requires time, causing emotional turmoil for the speaker.
still I'm out of my mind
Expressing continued emotional distress despite the anticipated separation.
now it's high time I find something that might
Acknowledging the urgency to find a solution and make the person understand.
help you understand
Reiterating the importance of the person comprehending the speaker's emotions.
if you come back to me I'll make you see
Promising that the person will recognize the speaker's value upon returning.
no there ain't gonna be a better man
Asserting that there won't be a better partner than the speaker.
got your mamma on the phone, asking if we made up
Describing an attempt to seek reconciliation by involving the person's mother.
she says you never come around
Quoting the mother's observation that the person is absent and not visiting.
says she's had enough, that makes two of us
Sharing the mother's frustration, indicating a shared concern for the person's absence.
praying that you come around
Expressing a hope or prayer for the person to return.
now it's high time I find something that might
