From the recording Male Midtempo

Lyrics

VERSE
When you up and left, it was without a word
You flew out of here like you was some kinda bird
All I know now is all the things I’ve heard
But I find it all to be completely absurd

PRE-CHORUS
Here’s all I know for sure...

CHORUS
I’ll be right here when you get back
And I don’t care to know where you’ve been
Ain’t a thing you could have done I’d think was a sin
So I’ll be right here when you get back

VERSE
People tellin’ me that you’ve been here and there
Tellin’ me all that stuff like they think I would really care
Truth is I’ve been ridin’ on a sea of despair
In an every-damn-night all-night nightmare

Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/VERSE
If you would come on home, I’d do everything for you
That you said so many times you knew I would never do
And I’d never do the things that make you blue
I would even buy you that butterfly tattoo

Repeat CHORUS (2x)/TAG
Oh, I’ll be right here when you get back
