Coming Around Again Lyrics

Lyric discussion by girlwholovesmusic 

Cover art for Coming Around Again lyrics by Carly Simon

It starts out happy, hopeful, sweet... Children come, you feel blessed, blissful, and the change feels good... But as time passes, other things change, he's home less and less... Not sure why it's different now... Then you learn why, and it breaks your heart.

You return home, but not happy, not sweet, only hopeful... But it's not the same... And soon you realize it will never be the same, what it once was... And your heart breaks a little more...

So in love, so in love, but you have to leave to save yourself... And try to retain the hope... That love will be there for you again, somewhere, some day...
