I’M COMING OVER

Music and lyrics by Matthew Robinson © July 2002

As moments go, I guess this one was pretty clear and simple
What should I be surprised to find?
Story goes, the times were good, but what is there to measure
When someone leaves someone behind?
And I am through with wishing you could be around

So I’m coming over
Turn the music on
Go and make it last the weekend long
Make it at least a little like you were never gone
I’m coming over
Make it real again
Make it like it never had to end
Show me that it doesn’t have to be different

Take me somewhere we can breathe and maybe talk a little
There’s always far too much to say
I don’t think it’s too hard to believe this is for a reason
And it could bring you back someday

I am not here to question why it went this way

I’m just coming over
So turn the music on
Go and make it last the weekend long
Make it at least a little like you were never gone
I’m coming over
Make it real again
Make it like it never had to end
Show me that it doesn’t have to be different

I’m here to assure you
I am so happy for you
This is yours, it’s this because

You always knew your way

I can’t pretend that you are not my saving grace

I’m coming o, I’m coming over
Make it real again

Make it like it never had to end
Show me that it doesn’t have to be different
It doesn’t have to be different
It doesn’t have to be different
It doesn’t have to be different

About 'I'm Coming Over' - 07/02 - Matthew R.

I was in a low financial patch, when a couple of MAMMA MIA! friends in Brisbane (thanks Matt & Kel!) offered to fly me up to Brissy and spend the weekend with them at Noosa. Well, it all went to plan and the chorus of I'm Coming Over got finished just before touchdown in QLD. That weekend was one of the clearest and simplest times I'd had all year. So, I finished the verses back in Melbourne, before the real moment of truth when Matt B. and Dom put down some harmonies on a vocal demo. It never fails to put a smile on my face.
