She Comes and Goes

from How to Smile Upside Down by Gary Hurlstone

/

about

A song about indecision - a woman torn between making a commitment to the man she loves whilst trying to deal with the fear she carries about losing her freedom. I guess this choice faces many of us.

lyrics

She Comes and Goes

Wasting my day, I’m nine to five-ing
Wasting my life this way
I don’t want to be here,
Like something left behind
Lonely is a stranger,
Asleep within a mind

Going away how hard you made it
But going away is fine
So, if today you find her, tell her where I am
I might be a child tonight,
But she, might want the man

Cutting in line for the love she’s giving
Seeing her move away
And when she thinks I’m watching,
She slips inside her style
Cut’s loose from the promise,
She’s free for a while

There she goes

​And if you can't get what you want
You might get what you need
Everybody wants to be someone

Then silence calls, as loud as a bell
Give your heart, love’s imploding

Ooh, she comes and goes
Ooh, she comes and goes
Ooh, she comes and goes
