lyrics

I could see him from across the room
His eyes two burning suns
And I could tell by the way he talked
He was done I was already gone
I was already gone

I could hear him from across the room
My words useless as they fell to the ground
His calloused hand covering my fate
My stubborn mouth wouldn't make a sound
I couldn't make a sound

Baby's coming back to me
He ain't coming back

I could feel him from across the room
His soul empty as the blackest space
Divorced his guilt with the flip of a coin
But no man really gets away
No one gets away

You son of a bitch I won't play your games
The choice is yours and it's yours alone
He said that coin would have its say
He got here the same
We both end up the same damn way

Baby's coming back to me
He ain't coming back

I could see her from across the room
Those eyes two moons on the wane
She said the same thing everyone says
But they all go down the same
They all go down the same

The die is cast now how it lands
No man can change though many have tried
Beg and plead with it all you want
What's done is down my hands are tied
My hands are tied

Baby's coming back to me
He ain't coming back
