Back Up Again Lyrics - Singles - Brian Mccomas

You might call me a gambler 

I guess I've always been 

Cause I'll risk the chance of losin' 

Just to have a chance to win 

And the odds were stacked against me 

When I ran in to you 

Turned out I lost a lot more 

Than I knew I had to lose, yeah 

You always wanted someone 

I knew I couldn't be 

Cause I learned long ago 

It's hard enough just bein' me 

So now you're out there runnin' 

You've moved on in your mind 

Forgot about the pain you left behind 

It's been a long time 

Yeah it's been a long, long time 

You had me down for a while 

Oh but I got back up again 

Yes I did 

I could tell you it was worth it 

But that'd just be a lie 

Cause you never gave enough of you 

To make it worth the try 

Now everything you told me 

And all the plans we made 

Are memories I'm just trying to chase away 

Cause it's been a long time 

Yeah it's been a long, long time 

I had to get you off my mind 

Yeah but I got back up again 

I got back up again 

So I picked up the pieces 

Out here on my own 

I learned to hold my bets till I know all the cards are shown 

The clouds are finally clearin' 

I think I see the sun 

And I'm hopin' most of the hurtin's finally done, yeah 

It's been a long time 

Yeah it's been a long, long time 

You had me down for a while 

Yeah, but I got back up again 

Yeah I got back up again 

That's right 

I got back up again 

Yes I did
