George Michael › Lyrics › Waiting for That Day/You Can't Always Get What You Want

So every day I see you in some other face
They crack a smile, talk a while
And try to take your place
My memory serves me far too well

I just sit here on this mountain thinking to myself
You're a fool boy why don't you go down
Find somebody and find somebody else?
My memory serves me far too well

It's not as been though
We've just broke up
It's not as been though
It was yesterday

But something I just can't explain
Something in me needs this pain
I know I'll never see your face again
C'mon now, I've got be to be strong now

Now everybody's talking about this new decade
Like you say the magic numbers
Then just say "Goodbye" To the stupid mistakes you made
Oh my memory serves me far too well

And don't you know that the years will come and go
Some of us will change their lives
Some of us still have nothing to show
Nothing baby, but memories

And if these wounds
They are self inflicted
I don't really let you know
How my poor heart could have protected me

But if I have to carry this pain
If you will not share the blame
I deserve to see your face again
C'mon now, you don't have to be so strong now

Come back, come back, come back, come back
Come back, come back, come back

Come back to me darling
I will make it worth your while
Come back to your baby
I miss your kiss, I miss your smile

Seems to me the peace I search to find here
Ain't gonna be mine until you say you will
Don't you keep me waiting for that day
I know, I know, I know, you hear these words that I say
Oh I know, I know, I know, I know

You can't always get what you wanna
And you can't always get what you wanna
You can't always get what you wanna
You can't always get what you wanna

Oh come back, come back, come back, come back
Come back, come back, comeback
