Come Back Somehow

I wasn't lookin' for trouble
Hell, trouble found me
I was mindin' my own business
    trouble got in my way
I took the back streets home
I had alot to think about...
Trouble 'round the corner
said he's gonna straighten me out

But I'm alright now and I'm gonna
    come back somehow
Gonna claim that soul you took from me
Hey I'm alright now and I'm feelin' a
    little bit stronger
Gonna claim all that's comin' to me

Well a little shame goes a long way
little girl didn't need to be
    knocked around
and you're wonderin' now why it is
she never comes around
It was the only way to catch her attention
oh the pain will evaporate with time
but like a slow motion replay
you're always there in her mind

But she's alright now and she's gonna
    come back somehow
Gonna claim that soul you took from her
Hey she's alright now and she's feelin'
    a little bit stronger
Gonna claim all that's comin' to her

Well I'm stayin' on this side of my door
you won't see me out at night
I don't want to answer any questions
don't need you to read me my rights
I need a little time to be alone
and alot of time with the one I love
and I'll be comin' back hittin' harder
and show you what I'm made of

Cause I'm alright now and I'm gonna
    come back somehow
Gonna claim that soul you took
    from me
Hey I'm alright now and I'm feelin'
    a little bit stronger
Gonna claim all that's comin' to me

Well I guess that I should thank you
in spite of our push and shove
and if anything came out of us
I learned alot about love
Some people aren't what they seem
some people aren't who they really are
sometimes you get a little bit too close
and get more than you bargained for

But you're alright now and you're
    gonna come back somehow
Gonna claim that soul they took
    from you
Hey you're alright now and you're
    feelin' a little bit stronger
Gonna claim all that's comin' to you
Yeah I'm alright now and I'm feelin'
    a little bit stronger
Gonna claim all that's comin' to me
