Run Back To Him Song Notes, Lyrics & Tabs Download The Song Here Song Notes: I started writing this one late one night on the way home from a catering gig.  Of the many "day jobs" I've had in my life, the catering one was one of the best.  You worked a few hours, and at the end of the night got all of the leftover food and beverages.  Not bad. I finished writing this one a couple of years later as a student at the Old Town Folk School in Chicago in Ralph Covert's songwriting workshop.  That was the place that I first "outed" myself as a songwriter.  Until then they were just ramblings on pieces of scrap paper that I kept laying around, and obscure melodies that I'd occasionally hum to myself. Then, when I started playing out at the open mics in and around the city, this was the song that I always played to open my set.  It was always the most familiar to me, the easiest to play, and if I was really nervous and played it waaay too fast, it still sounded good. That's why we still play it first today!  So, if you want to hear us do it live... get there early. Lyrics: Run Back To Him  lyrics and music © by Brent Hoodenpyle Have you ever had a falling out  Like the one we had today? Have you ever missed a lover Who you sent his separate way? Have you ever fallen in so deep That you couldn't even swim? Have you ever left a lover and then Run back to him? Have you cried all night just thinking 'bout The life that might have been? Has your heart stopped cold when you passed someone Who looked a lot like him? Did a lover ever come around, Try to win your heart again? Did you tell him "No", or did you go and Run Back To Him? Tell me, is it over now? Oh, babe, I've got to know. Did you mean those things you said to me When you watched me go? And if a lover said he's sorry For all the things he'd done, And that his life was like a candle And you were like the sun, Would you shine your light down on a man Whose world was cold and dim? And could you find it in your heart to Run back to him? Oh, and if you ever loved me would you Love me again?
