Coming Back
Ben Cantelon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm drowning in need of your lifeline
I'm desperate, I'm on my knees again
Surrendered
I have had all the riches of this world
They could never, ever take your place
I've had enough of what I've become
I'm coming back to you
I'm coming back to you
I am reaching up to a higher ground
But gravity has got a hold on me
But I know your love will see me
Through this darkness
I'm coming back to you my love
I've had enough of what I've become
I'm coming back to you
I'm coming back to you
Take my heart and make it clean
I'm overwhelmed as your grace covers me
I'm coming back to you
I'm coming back to you
I'm coming back, I'm coming back to you
I'm coming back, I'm coming back to you
Break me, mold me, heal me, restore me
You are my hope, you are my hope
Hold me closely, never let go
You are my hope, you are my hope

I am broken, there's nowhere left to hide
I acknowledge that I am damaged and there's no place to run
I'm drowning in need of your lifeline
I'm engulfed in requirements that only your support can meet
I'm desperate, I'm on my knees again
I'm feeling an urgent need and surrendering myself to you
Surrendered
I've given up control and handed myself over to you
I have had all the riches of this world
I've experienced all Earthly wealth and possessions
They could never, ever take your place
But none of those things could replace you
I am reaching up to a higher ground
I aspire for something greater and holier
But gravity has got a hold on me
But worldly ties are holding me back
But I know your love will see me
But I'm confident that your love will help me rise above
Through this darkness
Even in the midst of troubles and challenges
Take my heart and make it clean
Purify my heart and give me a new beginning
I'm overwhelmed as your grace covers me
I'm left in awe as your forgiving kindness surrounds me
I'm coming back, I'm coming back to you
I'm returning again back to you
Break me, mold me, heal me, restore me
You have the power to break, shape, mend, and rejuvenate me
You are my hope, you are my hope
You are my steadfast hope and anchor
Hold me closely, never let go
Embrace me tightly and never let me go
I'm coming back to you, my love
I'm returning back to you, my beloved
I've had enough of what I've become
I'm done with being who I am right now
I'm coming back to you
I'm returning back to you
