Come Around Lyrics

I’m dressed all in blue
And I’m remembering you
And the dress you wore
When you broke my heart
I’m depressed upstairs
And I’m remembering where
And when and how and why
You have to go so far

Am I going to be lonely for the rest of my life?
Am I going to be lonely for the rest of my life?
I’m going to be lonely for the rest of my life.
Unless you come around
So come around

I’m dressed all in white
And I remember the night
You came onto me
And opened up my heart
I was hollow then
Till you filled me in
Now I’m empty again
I should have never let it start

Am I going to be lonely for the rest of my life?
Am I going to be lonely for the rest of my life?
I’m going to be lonely for the rest of my life.
Unless you come around
So come around

No one else can fix me
Although sometimes my heart tricks me
Into thinking someone else will do
Buy you’re the only one
You are the only one

Am I going to be lonely for the rest of my life?
Am I going to be lonely for the rest of my life?
I’m going to be lonely for the rest of my life.
Unless you come around
So come around
So come around
So come around

I’m dressed all in blue
And I’m remembering you
And the dress you wore
When you broke my heart

As for the song, I think it's about losing someone you loved, and not being able to imagine yourself with any other person ever, everything reminds you of them, and being convinced that unless you are with that one person, you're going to be lonely for the rest of your life.

Also saw it on Scrubs, My T.C.W., one of my favorite eps of all times.

I've never heard of a song that puts heartbreak into a better perspective:

You came onto me And opened up my heart I was hollow then Till you filled me in Now I'm empty again I should have never let it start

In my case, and many of yours if I'm reading this right, it was like I put everything I had into that relationship (time, money, everything) and at the time that made me feel full but when she left all that was gone and I felt hollow and lost. Because I invested all my time with her I had lost almost all track with my friends during it and after she left me with nothing else save for my family and my dog.

So far they're the only things that have kept me grounded.

I'd like to think that things have changed since then but here I sit, four long years later, asking myself will I ever be able to get over her you know? Or will I simply be lonely for the rest of my life?

I love this song, me and a few friends saw him in a local concert with a few other bands. We were like 3 rows from the stage and you can just see his expressions! Hes great! I loved his whole set. But this song is just so cool when you hear it live!

I heard this song about 2 months ago on a tv show i've spent months looking for it because i never knew the name or artist just how it went. I stopped looking about a week ago and yesterday i was driving home from my vacation in georgia and going through all the radio stations when this song came on. This song is beautiful. To me its a song about someone you love who left you out in the cold. And as some think you can only love once. So he is trying to win back the one he loves but wondering if he will just end up "lonely for the rest of my life"
