How Come? Lyrics: Sarah Lain. Song: Bob Hamilton.
Talking to me comes easily
You always say the right thing when I need
It seemed so clear, so bear with me
Suddenly the questions overwhelm
How come…you can’t find the strength
How come…you won’t fix it then?
How come…I see you at your best…but you prefer worse
It came to be, so naturally
Paradise is when it pours with rain
There’s certainty, but it’s all from me
Never been the complicated one
How fun…will it be while it lasted?
How far…can it really run?
How hard… would you fight to be here…or give up for real
Chorus 1
Wait and see, can’t guarantee, accepted
Already missed the point of no return
You left too soon – I’m starting to forget things
No corners seem turned
Then I think, how it’s been
When none of this was even happening
Things were fine, and I filled my time
Convinced myself it wasn’t meant to be
How come…I’ll still be here waiting?
Why try… when it could turn out worse?
How come…I can see it all fading…but I talked myself in
Chorus 2
If this turns out the way that it’s supposed to
It looks like it always should have been
If not, it’s nothing new, to be expected
Brace yourself again
