Welcome Back - Eliza Gilkyson

It was the summer of my discontent

It was the ball of a lifetime

It was the winter of my absence

Waiting on the springtime

Well there was dark sackcloth and ashes

For a couple a years

I took my licks and my hundred lashes

I cried a bundle of tears

Well that distant shore's forever out of reach

Before you know it you're washed up on the beach

And yet you're welcome back

It was a pretty dark day

And now the sun is shining welcome back

I'll just zoom on my way

Well I was bent but I was not broken

I was sinking but I could not drown

I was reeling but I was still hoping

I could be lost and found

I was temporarily disconnected

In my state of disrepair

Disoriented and dejected

I had to climb out of there

Well that distant shore's forever out of reach

Before you know it you're washed up on the beach

And then you're welcome back

It was a pretty dark day

And now the sun is shining welcome back

I'll just zoom on my way

Move on landward round feel bound

'Til you land on solid ground

Welcome back

It was a pretty dark day

And now the sun is shining welcome back

I'll just zoom on my way

Now everybody sing Welcome back

It was a pretty dark day

And now the sun is shining welcome back

I'll just zoom on my way
