It Always Comes Back to You

[Intro – Soft, Soulful]
Mmm… yeah…
Oh, I tried… I tried to let you go…
But darlin’…

⸻

[Verse 1]
I see your name light up my phone sometimes
In the middle of the day, no warning, no sign
And I tell myself I shouldn’t feel this way
But my heart don’t listen to what I say

We both found love in different arms
Built new lives, safe from harm
But there’s a truth we can’t deny
Still lives between your heart and mine

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, we try… yes we try… to leave it all behind
But every road we take just leads us back in time

⸻

[Chorus]
It always comes back to you, my love
No matter what I try to do, my love
Different lives, different dreams we chase
Still I see your face

It always comes back to you somehow
Even when we don’t know how
Across the world, in all we do
It always comes back to you

⸻

[Verse 2]
You send me pictures from a far-off place
Sunset falling on your smiling face
And I send one from where I stand
Tryin’ to pretend you’re holding my hand

We don’t say much, we don’t cross that line
But there’s a feeling we can’t confine
Through every mile, through every year
Your love still lingers here

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I’ve prayed… yes I’ve prayed… for this to fade away
But every prayer just brings your memory back to stay

⸻

[Chorus]
It always comes back to you, my love
No matter what I try to do, my love
Different hearts, different lives we live
Still got so much to give

It always comes back to you somehow
Even when we don’t know how
Across the world, in all we do
It always comes back to you

⸻

[Bridge – Gospel Feel]
Maybe it’s fate… maybe it’s real
Maybe it’s something time can’t heal
I searched for peace, I tried to be free
But your love keeps calling me

⸻

[Breakdown – Soft / Emotional]
Late at night when the world is still
I feel your touch, I always will
No matter where these roads may go
There’s one thing that I know…

⸻

[Final Chorus – Big / Soulful]
It always comes back to you, my love
Like a blessing sent from up above
Through every tear, through every mile
You’re still my smile

It always comes back to you, it’s true
A love so strong, I can’t undo
No matter what this life puts us through
It always comes back… to you

⸻

[Outro – Fade / Ad-libs]
Mmm… yeah…
(It comes back… it comes back…)
Oh darlin’…
(It always comes back to you…)
