It All Came Back Today

Tanita Tikaram

Well, he said it like he meant it

But he did not really care

So I sat upon the Eve's embraces

I was never there -

No, I was never really fabled

I was never really lost

I was cunning through that habit of mine

Y'see all the words were lost

Yes, all the words were lost



And you can stand upon your own life

Say it always seemed to seal

There were smiles upon the picture

But I don't know what to feel

And I told a million stories

And I sat down to risk half

But I never really meant it

'Til you came and stole my heart away

You came and stole my heart away



And even if your real thought

Hid a thousand words away

And even if you never knew

It all came back today

It all, it all, all, all

All came back today

It all, it all, all, all

All came back today



Well, the rain scales up

And your soul is drowned

And mother's saying still raise a frown

And mother's saying still makes you see

What you have lost instead of me



And even if your real thought

Hid a thousand words away

And even if you never knew

It all came back today

It all, it all, all, all

All came back today

It all, it all, all, all

All came back today



And even though the starlight falls

And takes your breah away

You still stare up towards the toss

I don't know what to say

I don't know how to be alone

With some kind fretless friend

And even though the Harvest brings

Well, we all begin again

I say we all begin again



And even if your real thought

Hid a thousand words away

And even if you never knew

It all came back today

It all, it all, all, all

All came back today

It all, it all, all, all

All came back today



I would like this sun

Be spoke until I find

I was all remembrance

Until the words got tired
