jackopierce - back next year lyrics

Loading...

allison sits by the window and wonders
exactly when he will return
he left in november she can hardly remember
he said he’d be back real soon
it’s now june

and allison wonders if her three children
will ever see their father again
the early morning gas put the wind in his sails
as he left them for the sea once again
he is now gone, maybe for long

now every night she sits on the rooftop
hoping his ship she’ll see clear
she remembers his whisper as he knelt down to kiss her
he said “you know i’ll be back next year”

[chorus]
i’ll be back
i’ll be back
back next year
back next year

allison and her son and women they gather
in their sea sprayed shingled homes
they try not speak of the man they’re missing
together but they’re still alone
and allison tries hard to contain her feelings
but they see her crying she fears
they put their arms life and heard heart saying
“you know he’ll be back next year.”

[chorus]
i’ll be back
i’ll be back
back next year
back next year

after seven months of sailing has left her to wonder
if the sea has taken her man
through all of the waiting the pain’s not abating
it’s something she can no longer stand

she turns from the horizon to put down the children
wiping the last of her tears
he’s standing there with his children all around him he says
“i told you i’d be back this year.”

[chorus]
i’ll be back
i’ll be back
back next year
back next year
[chorus]
i’ll be back
i’ll be back
back next year
back next year
