It Comes and It Goes
Olga Wilhelmine Munding
It comes and it goes and it comes back around
Leaves me one day then shows up when I'm down
Reachin' and reachin' to catch if I can
Hold on a moment 'fore it flies from my hand
Always a step ahead of my feet
Always beckoning me to greet
It comes and it goes and it comes back around
It comes and it goes back around
It comes and it goes and it comes back around
One day I'm free, tomorrow I'm bound
Turnin' and turnin' up on my head
Before I'm asleep slipping into my bed
Always a whisper come hither to greet
Always a second hand of the beat
It comes and it goes and it comes back around
It comes and it goes back around
This time I will let myself bite
This time I'll catch it falling tonight
And I will see it through
It comes and it goes and it comes back around
