Rebound by Tom Bem Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Who do you think you are to keep me always waiting?
Summers long gone, winter's so far and the memories are all fading
Late, I'm always late but I'm first to say that
"Maybe one day, you'll come back to me..."
Well, that's what I'm hoping but hope's a funny thing
Cause from one day to the next hope can ruin everything
When someone hopes for far too much and the other not enough
Then hope will turn to hurt and force you both apart
Your my switch, switch
Switch, switch
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I'm like a bear and you're my honey, oh so sweet
With just one taste, you're all I wanna eat
I get the feeling that I'll never get that taste once more
Still sweet for sure but not mine no more
[Chorus]
Switch blade, I'll keep you in my pocket for a rainy day
But you cut deep inside
I guess I never learnt not to play with knives
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I wanna rebound, rebound, rebound
Oh, oh
I wanna rebound, rebound, rebound
[Verse 2]
Who do I go to, to voice my views if it's not you?
I'm so confused when my heart says you
But my head says "Rebound, rebound, rebound"
I'd never say, "Oh, never babe" then walk away and move on and change
Cause you say you know that you can't know
And as long as you can't know then I won't let go
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I'm like a bear and you're my honey, oh so sweet
With just one taste, you're all I wanna eat
I get the feeling that I'll never get that taste once more
Still sweet for sure but not mine no more
[Bridge]
I know now where I stand
But damn it's mighty tricky when you got these sticky hands
She's what I want but what I can't have
I'm her strung along toy, just a backup plan
Although it's just not right that we had to fight
Maybe it might help us out and make this finite
Oh I refuse to be a worker bee with its honey that it makes but can never eat
[Pre-Chorus 2]
She's still my spilt milk ready for a re-fill
She's still my switch blade, stances for a quick kill
See this noose around my neck, its getting tighter
I'm standing on my tippy toes, so lift me a little higher
So cut me loose, cut me loose, cut me loose now
Cut loose unless you wanna keep me tied down
So cut me loose, cut me loose, cut me loose now
Switch blade, cut the chase so I can rebound
[Chorus]
Switch blade, I'll keep you in my pocket for a rainy day
But you cut deep inside
I guess I never learnt not to play with knives
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I wanna rebound, rebound, rebound
No, no, no, no
I wanna rebound, rebound, rebound
Who do you think you are to keep me always waiting?
Summers long gone, winter's so far and the memories are all fading
Late, I'm always late but I'm first to say that
"Maybe one day, you'll come back to me..."
Well, that's what I'm hoping but hope's a funny thing
Cause from one day to the next hope can ruin everything
When someone hopes for far too much and the other not enough
Then hope will turn to hurt and force you both apart
Your my switch, switch
Switch, switch
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I'm like a bear and you're my honey, oh so sweet
With just one taste, you're all I wanna eat
I get the feeling that I'll never get that taste once more
Still sweet for sure but not mine no more
[Chorus]
Switch blade, I'll keep you in my pocket for a rainy day
But you cut deep inside
I guess I never learnt not to play with knives
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I wanna rebound, rebound, rebound
Oh, oh
I wanna rebound, rebound, rebound
