Back Again
Soulive Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Was just a matter of time, till you find a girl, yeah yeah yeah
I felt this repetition, wasn't my intention to here coming back again
I felt it in my heart, have read it in the cards
I'm fallin' in the risk of our love, is bigger than both of us
There must be some wisdom, show lost signs
We've made our decision, not realized this love we can't deny
I felt this repetition, it wasn't my intention to here coming back again
Now we have to listen to what our hearts in vision, this love will never die
I felt it in my heart, have read it in the cards
I'm fallin' in the risk of our love, is bigger than both of us
I felt it in my heart, have read it in the cards
I'm fallin' in the risk of our love, is bigger than both of us
I felt it in my heart, have read it in the cards
I'm fallin' in the risk of our love, is bigger than both of us
I felt it in my heart, have read it in the cards
I'm fallin' in the risk of our love, is bigger than both of us
I felt it in my heart, have read it in the cards
I'm fallin' in the risk of our love, is bigger than both of us
