Like strong black coffee
Like a long hot shower
I'm hoping for a comeback

Like smoking a Cohiba
Like browning in the oven
I'm hoping for a comeback

It's not too late
It's not too soon
Wanna take up
A bit more room
Wanna get arrested
In this town again
Wanna have a chance
To be your friend

Like falling in the ocean
Like drifting down the river
I'm hoping for a comeback

Like drawing in the sand
Like a southern high school dance
I'm hoping for a comeback

It's not too late
It's not too soon
Wanna take up
A bit more room
Wanna get arrested
In this town again
Wanna have a chance
To be your friend
Wanna take a chance
And be your friend

Like strong black coffee
Like a long hot shower
I'm hoping for a comeback

It's not too late
It's not too soon
Wanna take up
A bit more room
Wanna get arrested
In this town again
Wanna have a chance
Wanna take a chance
And be your friend

Wanna have a chance
Wanna take a chance
Wanna have a chance
And be your friend
