Back To You Lyrics - Times Like These - Buddy Jewell

In a brief an' open moment in an' ol' roadside cafe 

Just outside a-Memphis in the dyin' light of day 

My eyes must have betrayed me, 'cause it was you, I could have sworn 

And time came to a standstill as a brand new ghost was born 

Yeah, a brand new ghost was born 

How can you tell the river from the rain 

When so much of you an' me and us remains? 

No matter what direction I go runnin' to 

It always comes back to you 

In the latest book I'm readin' in the crisp October air 

In a face I see in traffic in some yet unwhispered prayer 

You are everything and everyone and everywhere I go 

Hangin' like a mornin' mist that's burnin' off too slow 

You are burnin' off too slow 

How can you tell the river from the rain 

When so much of you an' me and us remains? 

No matter what direction I go runnin' to 

It always comes back to you 

Just like I always did 

Remindin' me, I'm such a fool to ever let you go 

How can you tell the river from the rain 

When so much of you an' me and us remains? 

No matter what direction I go runnin' to 

It always comes back to you
