The rain is here, and you, my dear, are still my friend
It's true two of us are back as one again
I was the one who left you
Always coming back
I cannot forget you, girl
Now I am up in arms again

The rain is here, and you, my dear, are still my friend
It's true, the two of us are back as one again
I was the one who left you
Always coming back
I cannot forget you, girl
Now I am up in arms again

Together now, I don't know how this love could end
My lonely heart, it falls apart for you to mend
I was the one who left you

Always coming back I cannot forget you, girl
Now I am up in arms again
I was the one who left you

Always coming back I cannot forget you, girl
Now I am up in arms again
I was the one who left you

Always coming back I cannot forget you, girl
Now I am up in arms again

    General Comment:I think it's about two people who had a short pause in their relationship but than realized, that they can't go on without the other...

    General Comment:This song is all about falling out with someone but then forgiving them and being friends still. I can relate to this at the minute as I fell out with one of my best friends for no reason and she hadn't really fallen out with me at all.

    General Comment:I saw them in Sydney and Dave introduced this song by saying something like:

    "I love it when people make sure they get seats for our shows. I mean you've got all these wankers standing up for the whole show on the floor, but you guys who get seats are the ones I really love. So here's our love song for you."

    Then when they finished the slow part of the song he screams:
    "This is for all you assholes on the floor!" and rips into the second half of the song.
    Gotta love that!

    General Comment:This song was obviously written for me and my girlfriend.

    We were together for 3 and 1/2 years, and I broke up with her, out of fear of my future (or lack thereof), but I wanted her back, and now I have her back, and I'm the happiest guy in the world.

    General Comment:Sounds like he's really happy about getting back with someone he really likes.

    "Always coming back, I cannot forget you girl" - sounds like he's been going back a lot of times.

    General Comment:I loved this song since I first heard it, but it never really hit home until a few weeks ago...I am sort of on the rocks with my girl.. I'm hoping this song is something I can believe in, as a beacon of hope.
