Sujet: It All Comes Back

There's a place
On the corner
Mixing gossip up with gin

In the face
In the window
They'll always tell ya who's been in

  Then you move to the country
  To lose the smoke and the crowd

Nights like this
Always wind up
Where the air is thick
And the music's loud

  Every breath has its meaning
  Blowing out loud and breathing in

  So, take care what you do
  'Cause it all comes back again

There's a sign
On the highway
Telling everyone to rejoice
Every moment is a crossroads
And everyone must make a choice

  So, when you love, take it easy
  'Cause short-cuts are a waste of time

And the years
Bring the people
You've been holding in your mind

  Every breath has its meaning
  Blowing out loud and breathing in

  So, take care what you do
  'Cause it all comes back again

There's a man
In the White House
Selling everyone a used car
And he plays with his profits
Dreams that he's a football star

  But the dreams rain down fire
  On the little plastic man

And if you think it doesn't hurt you
Then you had better think again

  Every breath has its meaning
  Blowing out loud and breathing in

  So, take care what you do
  'Cause it all comes back again
