collective musical talents to the service and salvation of others.Mark Ambrose, and Steve Shannon
played together for several years in the Christian band "Sojourn", and it was herein the seeds were
planted for Idle Cure. In 1986, Idle Cure launched their initial self titled album on the then fledgling
label Frontline Records. The response was both remarkable, and immediate. "Breakaway was a
runaway hit on major Christian Rock radio stations, and "Take It" was a number 1 ballad almost
nationwide. In spite of the fact that the band never did any major tours, the radio success on
several fronts created a steady sub-culture of fans in the industry. Idle Cure went on to produce
five studio projects, and a compilation disc. Each release is superlative, and by many accounts
the band simply got better with every effort. Idle Cure now enjoys the status of being perhaps one
of the finest bands of the many who have tread similar waters.
Come Back To Me
Idle Cure Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Make me wonder
What went wrong
Harder, it's getting harder
To pass You on
It's not an emotion
That makes me feel this way
Without you here
It's not the same
Can Your love somehow find a way
And bring us together
Come back to me
Off in the distance
You've been calling
And I've just walked away
Like a ship lost in the ocean
Without a place to stay
I've been pushing my luck
Pushing too hard
What's come over me?
Since You've been gone
I knew You were right
But it's still the same I'm alone tonight
Can Your love somehow find a way, will it be long?
Come back to me
I can see Your guiding hand holding a dream
And touching my heart
Your love together with a promise of life
Was there from the start

And I've just walked away

Like a ship lost in the ocean
Unable to navigate through the storms of life without your guidance
Without a place to stay
At a crossroads, where I feel lost and uncertain of my destination
I've been pushing my luck
Recklessly making decisions that led to the collapse of the relationship
Pushing too hard
Overwhelming the relationship with my selfish desires and not considering the other person's needs
What's come over me?
A sudden realization of the actions that have led to our separation
Since You've been gone
The nature of the separation that led to a time of unknown distance

Your love together with a promise of life
The mystery of love, together with the promise of life, is a powerful force bringing trust and hope
Was there from the start
The same aspect of love that created the sparks between us initially is still present and continues to burn
