I wrote this song for a woman who had lost her long time partner, and 2 years later, was readying for marriage to her new love. This is about honoring all those in our lives who shape us to be the people we are meant to be.

Lyrics

Bringing Me Back to Love
Music and lyrics: Lisa Koch ©2018 Mamajune Music (BMI)

You never know what life will bring
It’s a mystery every day
Sometimes it’s heartache, and sometimes joy
Sometimes they’re all the same

But you know when something’s right
And you know when something’s good
And you know when love has tapped you on the shoulder

Now we’re leaving a seat at the table for the ones who came before
‘Cause it took every memory to get here and to shape the love we own
I’ll grab your heart, you grab mine
And we’ll walk on down the road
Hand in hand, ain’t life grand
‘Cause you’re bringing me back, bringing me back, bringing me back to love

Didn’t know I could go on
Didn’t know I had the room
Didn’t know that you’d appear and knock me over

And I know they’re looking down
And I know they’ll cheer us on
And I know they’re sitting right there on our shoulders

You never know what life will bring
It’s a mystery every day
Sometimes it’s heartache, and sometimes joy
Sometimes they’re all the same

But you know when love is right
And you know when love is good
And you know when love has tapped you on the shoulder

Now we’re leaving a seat at the table for the ones who came before
‘Cause it took every memory to get here and to shape the love we own
I’ll grab your heart, you grab mine
And we’ll walk on down the road
Hand in hand, ain’t life grand
‘Cause you’re bringing me back, bringing me back, bringing me back to love
