Song Description

A man's dearly departed loved one sometimes comes back.

Lyrics

{Verse 1}

I'm often at the window, staring into space,
Thinking of the long ago, a different time and place.
She left me in the shadows, so far down the track,
I thought she'd gone forever, but sometimes she comes back.

{Chorus}

Sometimes she comes back when stormy clouds go rushing by.
Sometimes she comes back when lightning forks down from the sky.
When the smell of metal fills the air and thunder starts to crack,
I see her face most everywhere, yeah, sometimes she comes back.

{Verse 2}

I thought we'd last forever, but forever never comes.
We'd always be together; our hearts would beat as one.
Walking through the churchyard, I'm sure I felt a tap.
She's in another world now, but sometimes she comes back.

{Chorus}

Sometimes she comes back when stormy clouds go rushing by.
Sometimes she comes back when lightning forks down from the sky.
When the smell of metal fills the air and thunder starts to crack,
I see her face most everywhere, yeah, sometimes she comes back.

{Verse 3}

Now our journey's ended, I walk the world alone.
I heavily depended on the only love I've known.
I have to live without her; I have to readapt.
I never can forget her, 'cos sometimes she comes back.

{Chorus}

Sometimes she comes back when stormy clouds go rushing by.
Sometimes she comes back when lightning forks down from the sky.
When the smell of metal fills the air and thunder starts to crack,
I see her face most everywhere, yeah, sometimes she comes back.

I thought she'd gone forever, but sometimes she comes back.
