Return To Me

1v:
The two of us
Now are one of none
You packed your suitcase of bitter promises
My heart is feeling numb
Our love was flying high in the clear blue sky
You left me with no words of goodbye
Was it something that I didn't say
or do at the time
or was I too blind to realize
you're no longer my precious sunshine?
Chorus:
Tired of playing the part of a loner
Every night feels like eternity growing colder
Return to me
Try to see
that I'm the one you will ever need
Return to me
I'll make you see
We are meant to be
Two true loving hearts mending as one masterpiece
2v:
Tears on my guitar
Ease my broken heart
Come back to me wherever you are
Been crying since we've been apart
Our love was meant to be, very soon you will see
But now, your Prince Charming isn't me
Was it something that I've done
To make you go astray
I didn't think it would be this way
I was such a dumb fool, I must say
Chorus
Bridge:
I held on to your love
With little care
I wouldn't give your love air
And now it's gone
I held on to your heart
Like a string
I wouldn't let your heart sing
And now it's gone
I was too dumb to see
How precious your love was to me
And now you've gone away
And now it's for you I sing this song
3v:
Once was my lover
Now out with another
And now I'm drowning in pity
Cause there was no love above her
I thought you'd be my friend, until the earth's end
But know that's all over, and this I didn't intend
Was it something that I didn't do
To lose the love of you
I didn't mean to hurt you
And now I want you back, please don't leave me blue

VERSE 1
I wanna write you a love song
That's dear to my heart
Express my inner feelings
And how I loved you from the start
But every time I come up with something
That expresses my amour
It turns out some lucky schmuck
Has said those words before
CHORUS
I can't think of a new way
To say I love you
When I'm writing
I'm plagiarizing
Someone else's tune
All those hours writing silly tunes
For you, it frustrates me so
Heck I'll just do a cover
A song by another
And see how it goes
VERSE 2
"This guy's in love with you"
No, Herb Alpert said that
"I can't live if living's without you"
No, Badfinger said that
"I want to hold your hand"
No, The Beatles said that
"Roses are red and violets are blue"
Oh, don't make me laugh
CHORUS
VERSE 3
I did not realize that writing love songs
Would be such a bore
No wonder there's no musician out there
Who writes these things anymore
Forget it, I'll just write "I love you"
A hundred-thousand times
At least I don't have to worry
Whether or not it rhymes
CHORUS
