[Verse 1]
She pushed that door like memory
Same coat, same scar on her knee
The floorboard knew her name
And every card in the ashtray
She smiled like she’d been gone
But the room said, “Not for long”

[Pre-Chorus]
She traced the ring on the glass
Said, “I’ve been here before”
I heard the air go still
Right by the bandstand wall
She laughed like rain on tin
And let the old night in

[Chorus]
She has been here before
She has been here before
Baby, she came back for more
And the floor still knows her
She has been here before
(Been here before)
And my hands still shake at the door

[Verse 2]
Red booth, chipped white cup
Her lipstick on the rim got up
She tapped one heel to time
Like a secret old outline
The sax man caught her eye
She said, “Play that hurt just right”

[Pre-Chorus]
She traced the ring on the glass
Said, “I’ve been here before”
The ceiling swung low
Like a train over town
She laughed like rain on tin
And let the old night in

[Chorus]
She has been here before
She has been here before
Baby, she came back for more
And the floor still knows her
She has been here before
(Been here before)
And my hands still shake at the door

[Bridge]
She said, “Don’t call it fate”
Just a habit that won’t stay away
Then she leaned into the blue
And the whole place leaned too
One last smile, one last spin
Like she knew what hides beneath the skin

[Chorus]
She has been here before
She has been here before
Baby, she came back for more
And the floor still knows her
She has been here before
(Been here before)
And my hands still shake at the door
