Comes Back - Jad Fair, Daniel Johnston

I took a wrong turn of events

I made a wrong fork at the situation

I took a wrong turn of events

I made a wrong fork at the situation

I’ve been talking to you in your absence

And I’ve advocated quite a turn of events

I always knew it would come to this

I always knew it would come to this

Come back, come back, into his hands

His every wish is your command

Come back, come back, into Satan’s arms

I won’t shield you from evil

And I love all your songs!

I’ve been talking to you in my absence

And your narrow path has made sense of it all

I always knew it would come to this

I always knew it would come to this

I make up what I believe

I don’t believe what you believe

Come back, come back, to Austin, Texas

Satan loves you, and he loves all your songs!

You reach through two hundred miles of your own music noise

So clear and so quiet

Like bells across water

Like light in the darkness

Come back, come back, into his hands

His every wish is your command

Come back, come back, into Satan’s arms

I can’t shield you from evil

But I love all your songs!

Oh, Danny boy

The old serpent’s calling
