[Intro]
Come back, come back, come back baby

[Verse 1]
School bells, wishing wells, sun burns, long turns
DUI's, fake IDs, first kiss to the Fugees
Breaking in, breaking out
The man on the radio knew what we were thinking about
When we didn't even know what we were drinking about
Wedding bells, nursery rhymes
Thrift shops and Five and Dimes
Move home, quit the life
Wasn't ready for the nine to five
Breaking up, breaking down
The girl at the bank, she knew what we were fighting about
When we didn't even know what I was writing about

[Pre-Chorus]
Love I guess, is there anything else?

[Chorus]
Come back, come back, high or low
Before you're just a girl I used to know
And who will melt with me
When I am who you used to love
And you are just a memory
Come back, come back, come back baby
For I am who you used to love
And you are just a memory

[Verse 2]
Sunshines, intervention, roads paved with good intentions
Birthdays, condolences, on the wagon or so she says
Play the game, the papers came, no one wins, nobody to blame
Everybody's right, but no one's wrong
But where have all the good times gone?
Lawyers ask me if I wanted war
And I don't remember what I was fighting for, no

[Pre-Chorus]
Love I guess, is there anything else?

[Chorus]
Come back, come back, high or low
Before you're just a girl I used to know
And who will melt with me
When I am who you used to love
And you are just a memory
Come back, come back, come back baby
For I am who you used to love
And you are just a memory

[Bridge]
No I'm dying to let you know
Every time you leave it kills me slowly
If you go now it'll be the last time
I'm sailing away on these tears that I'm crying, oh

[Chorus]
Come back, come back, high or low
Before you're just a girl I used to know
And who will melt with me
When I am who you used to love
And you are just a memory
Come back, come back, high or low
Before you're just a girl I used to know
And who will melt with me
When I am who you used to love
And you are just a memory
Come back, come back, come back baby
For I am who you used to love
And you are just a memory
Come back, come back, come back baby
For I am who you used to love
And you are just a memory

Train

Train is an American rock band from San Francisco, formed in 1993. The band currently consists of Patrick Monahan (lead vocals), Luis Maldonado (guitar), Hector Maldonado (bass, vocals), Drew Shoals (drums), Jerry Becker (keyboards, guitar), Sakai Smith (backup vocals), and Nikita Houston (backup vocals).

With a lineup that included original members Monahan, Rob Hotchkiss, Jimmy Stafford, Scott Underwood, and Charlie Colin, the band achieved mainstream success with their debut album Train, which was released in 1998 with the hit “Meet Virginia”. Train’s 2001 album, Drops of Jupiter contained the lead single “Drops of Jupiter (Tell Me)”, which won two Grammy Awards in 2002. The album was certified double platinum in the United States and Canada and remains the band’s best-selling album to date.

Train’s third studio album, My Private Nation, released in 2003, was certified platinum in the United States with the hit “Calling All Angels”. Following the departures of Hotchkiss and Colin, the band released their fourth album, For Me, It’s You in 2006, with Brandon Bush (keyboards) and Johnny Colt (bass). Despite a generally positive reception from critics, the album was commercially unsuccessful. Because of this, Train went on a two-year hiatus from recording any new music.
