Coming Back For More
Linney Lyrics

The lyrics of Linney's song "Coming Back for More" describe a singer who is not invited but decides to come over anyway. The situation seems to involve a troubled relationship where the other person may be seeking space or trying to end things, while the singer persists in pursuing something more. The catchy chorus suggests a repeated pattern, where the other person keeps coming back for more despite previous attempts to leave or distance themselves.

In the first verse, the singer assumes a heroic role, implying that they will come over to protect the other person from something. The supposed protection could be anything from a difficult situation to their own emotions, which they express later in the song. The line "If you play nice I'll take it back" suggests a power dynamic at play, where the singer is willing to be forgiving if the other person acquiesces, but also implies that they are in control of the situation. In the second verse, the singer acknowledges the other person's perspective, referring to being perceived as "crazy" and "misbehaving." However, they also suggest that the other person is inconsistent, disappearing for "a couple of days" before returning to repeat the pattern all over again.

Overall, the song portrays a relationship fraught with tension, where both parties seem unable to extricate themselves from a co-dependent cycle of behavior. The catchy melody and upbeat tempo suggest a measure of hope or anticipation, but the lyrics hint at a more complicated reality.
