Tears go here

"Comeback" is such a pretty song. I sorta wish it was longer, but at the same time I feel it is perfect.

They'll come back...."

Tears certainly went on my face when I first heard it. Melodically it's very powerful.

Don't hate me 'cause I'm NOT beautiful

One of my favorite songs. And I still often cry when I hear it--I think the closing is one of the few truly inspired lyrical moments he's ever had. He writes good lyrics often... but there is a purity and bravery for me in the end of this one. Can't explain it... but it works for me.

Isn't Comeback about his son? I think I heard that, or someone on here said it was. Maybe it was speculation?

I'm welling up just thinking about it. It's so real, you don't have to have lost someone to feel it as was the case for me when it first came out but once you have. Wow. neutral

Good song but not as great as i was expecting. The ending and these lines are my favourite part:

Walking up the stairs, just the afternoon
Sweet wind blew, not a moment too soon
Hoo, I cry when I realized
That sweet wind was you
