I Never Left You Anyway
Jandek · Other Songs - Jandek
I never left you anyway
You had your way
Now I say
Come back to me babe [3x]
Never be so silly you
Want me to take hold of you
Tell you of your mysteries
At your leisure if you please
Come back to me babe [3x]
Now that you are here I see
That you've been coming back to me
Just like a living, dying tree
I'll drink a cup of love tea
