Bouncin' Back

Her name came up today

To my surprise

My eyes watered up

But I didn't cry

I pictured our good times

And I almost had a laugh

I'm finally bouncin' back

I'm finally bouncin' back, yeah

Fall and winter's gone

I've made it through the cold

Shivered through some storms

Rained all night all alone

I didn't like that

I could see that silver lining

I can see it now at last

I'm finally bouncin' back

(Saxophone solo)

Last week I took her name off my mailbox

Threw out some shoes and clothes she left behind

I even took her picture off of my dresser

I believe these are very good signs

Yeah, yeah, yeah

(Horn solo)

I've got the urge to sing again

I've got the urge to dance

I can see myself again

Giving love just one more chance

I've been away too long

Way off track

I'm finally bouncin' back

I've been away too long

Way off track

And I'm finally bouncin' back

I'm finally bouncin' back

I've got the urge to dance

I believe that I'll give love just one more chance
