Caught You On The Rebound
Howard Jeffrey 2011
When I saw you here the other day
I almost turned and walked away
‘Cause you really weren’t all that nice
But we were friends once long ago
You were one of few I stillwanted to know
And I saw a longing in your eyes
PRECHORUS
And soon I did uncover
That you had lost a lover
Kicked you off and left you here for dead
So you’re hurt and shamed and angry
Feeling cold and lonely
No reason to get out of bed.
CHORUS
Caught you on the rebound
Right before you hit the ground
Can’t tell you all I found
Only want you to stay… around
Don’t know how you got here
Come on, Baby, let me dry your tears
Free yourself from all this fear
You been holding on too long
So you let him stay when he should’ve been gone
While he stomped your heart and trashed your song
But you had faith that he he’d come around
Then one night you found him here
With a bag of coke and a case of beer
And some young girl from out of town
PRECHORUS
So, yes, you did uncover
That he had another lover
You kicked them out and wished that they were dead
So you’re hurt and shamed and angry
And feeling cold and lonely
No good reason to get out of bed.
Solo Verse
PRECHORUS So now we have uncovered
That I can be your lover
Can you open up and let me come inside?
We can cast out all tyour demons
Emotions we can free ‘em
There’s nothing from me you should hide
