Lyrics

Now That It’s Done, Won’t You Come Back

Lay me down easy, love,
lay me down
Lay with me tonight
before you leave town

Because I’ve made decisions, love,
I’ve been plagued from the start
Regrets bleed when my memories go
from my head to my heart

But now that it’s done won’t you come back?
Now that it’s done won’t you come back?
Now that it’s done won’t you come back?
And I will surrender to your heart again

I left home early, love,
with each step the wind
And I’ve been burned more at my front door
yeah I am ready to come in

And I wanted freedom
so I broke their laws
But freedom don’t come from rejecting them,
it’s from not being tempted at all

Now that it’s done won’t you come back?
Now that it’s done won’t you come back?
Now that it’s done won’t you come back?
And I will surrender to your heart again

If you kiss me, love,
please do so slow
It’s been said you can save the wicked, depraved
and I wanna know

I know it ain’t easy
to pardon what I have done
But addiction don’t run from the sight of a gun
and I need someone

Now that it’s done won’t you come back?
Now that it’s done won’t you come back?
Now that it’s done won’t you come back?
And I will surrender to your heart again
I will surrender to your heart again
I will surrender to your heart again
