It's All Coming Back To Me Now
The Bostonians Lyrics

There were nights when the wind was so cold That my body froze in bed If I just listened to it right outside the window
I had sleepless nights as the chilly winds crept in my room, making every part of my body numb. But if I focused on the howling wind outside, I could escape the sensation.

There were days when the sun was so cruel That all the tears turned to dust And I just knew my eyes were drying up forever
The scorching sun made me cry until there were no tears left to shed, and I feared my eyes would never water again.

I finished crying in the instant that you left And I can't remember where or when or how And I banished every memory you and I had ever made
The moment you walked out the door, I stopped crying, but I can't recall the time, place, or manner of your departure, and I erased every shared memory we had.

But when you touch me like this And you hold me like that I just have to admit That it's all coming back to me
Despite my efforts to forget, your touch and embrace bring everything flooding back to me.

When I touch you like this And I hold you like that It's so hard to believe but It's all coming back to me
Similarly, when I touch and hold you, it's almost unbelievable that all my buried emotions and memories resurface.

It's all coming back, it's all coming back to me now
Everything is returning and rushing back to me now.

There were moments of gold And there were flashes of light There were things I'd never do again But then they'd always seemed right There were nights of endless pleasure It was more than any laws allow Baby, baby
We shared some golden moments that lit up my life, things I wouldn't regret even if given a second chance, nights that knew no bounds, surpassing any legal limit, oh darling!

If I kiss you like this And if you whisper like that It was lost long ago But it's all coming back to me
Just like the emotions, the way you kiss and talk in whispers to me are a distant memory but now returning to me.

If you want me like this And if you need me like that It was dead long ago But it's all coming back to me
I believed that our relationship had long since died, but your desire and need could bring it all back to life.

It's so hard to resist And it's all coming back to me I can barely recall But it's all coming back to me now
It's hard to resist the temptation and attraction, and despite my memories being hazy, everything is rushing back.

But you were history with the slamming of the door And I made myself so strong again somehow And I never wasted any of my time on you since then
You became a part of my past when you shut that door, and I managed to regain my strength. From that moment, I never gave you any more of my time.

When you touch me like this And if you kiss me like that It was so long ago But it's all coming back to me
That feeling of being touched and kissed by you felt like eons ago, but now it's all returning to me.

When you see me like this And when I see you like that Then we see what we want to see All coming back to me
Now that I see you and myself in this situation, we both perceive what we desire, and it all comes back to me.

The flesh and the fantasies All coming back to me I can barely recall But it's all coming back to me now
Everything in the past, the physical and the fantasies, are all rushing back to me now, even though it's hard to recall.

And it's all coming back
Everything is returning
