Lost-centric original lyric
Admittedly these are sappy enough to be the lyrics of a Jimmy Wayne song, but in honor (or to the detriment) of the final Lost tonight, here's a lyric I wrote a few years ago based on this scene. Yes, I'm a dork. Read my other post today if you want actual (?) humor - this is only unintentional humor. A Bucky Covington Top 10 tomorrow... and Alt-Country Day 4 later in the week! Ta ta, I'm off to geek out!
Go Back There
Old habits die hard, I guess
Why'd you call me? is all she said
Over the roar of jets above their old meetin' place
She told him that he looked like hell
If she'd missed him, he couldn't tell
Who knew how she felt, all the makeup on her face
He'd been chasing the lowest highs
Every weekend takin' flights
Everything he could try, praying to be lost again
Maybe where they'd come back from
Was no damn good for either one
But here now in the long run, he longed for where they'd been
(He said)
I wanna go back there
We weren't supposed to leave
I'm tired of lying
Living is dying
I wanna go back there
Want you to go back there with me
She said He'll wonder where I am
He said this wasn't in the plans
Stood there a trembling man, cryin' I'll find a way
Then before she turned to leave
He could read the uncertainty
There in her eyes, as she said "This ain't gonna change"
(He said)
We have to go back there
We weren't supposed to leave
I'm tired of lying
Living is dying
I wanna go back there
Want you to go back there with me
Bridge
Her taillights lit his eyes
But he knew this goodbye
Wasn't for good
She understood
We have to go back there
We weren't supposed to leave
I'm tired of lying
Living is dying
I wanna go back there
Want you to go back there with me
