Lyrics
Then Came You - © 2019 Terry Sorfleet
Verse 1
Like a set of dead strings, On an old guitar
I'd been pulled and pushed around, and stretched too far
been fingered and picked on, far too long
I was out of tune and played all wrong
Chorus
But then came you, not a bar too soon
Beautifully wrapped in your perfume
Then came you, and put your trust in me
I'd locked myself away, you were the key
Then came you, Then came you
Then came you, Then came you
Verse 2
Like a busted truck spring
In a junk yard lot
I'd cracked from overload
and left to rot
I was tired and twisted
Tossed on the heap
With rusty rails and 'rusty nails'
Where no sowers reap
Chorus
But then came you, not a bar too soon
Beautifully wrapped in your perfume
Then came you, and put your trust in me
I'd locked myself away, you were the key
Then came you, Then came you
Then came you, Then came you
Bridge
My life had no traction
Caught in a cul-de-sac
Filled with dissatisfaction
No reason to turn back
Chorus
