Come Around Again (feat. Billen Ted & JC Stewart)

Armin Van Buuren's 'Come Around Again,' featuring Billen Ted and JC Stewart, delves into the emotional turmoil of a lingering past relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone grappling with the haunting memories of a former lover. The recurring line, 'I feel it coming 'round again,' signifies the cyclical nature of these emotions, suggesting that despite efforts to move on, the past keeps resurfacing.

The song's protagonist is caught in a web of conflicting feelings. On one hand, there's a desire to move forward, as indicated by lines like 'Ask me a question and I'll try to not reply, a sign I'm moving on.' Yet, the persistent presence of the ex-lover in their thoughts, 'It's you living inside my head,' reveals an ongoing struggle. This internal conflict is further emphasized by the repeated refrain, 'Don't, don't want it,' highlighting the protagonist's resistance to these unwelcome emotions.

The collaboration with Billen Ted and JC Stewart adds layers to the song, blending Van Buuren's signature electronic beats with poignant vocal performances. The lyrics also touch on themes of temptation and regret, 'Too much temptation coming even when you lie,' and 'I was hoping one day I would take my own advice,' suggesting a history of poor decisions and the difficulty of breaking free from past mistakes. The song captures the essence of how past relationships can continue to affect us, even when we strive to leave them behind.
