I hope it comes back for you. Lemon Balm is in the mint family. I’ve always had it in a container, like you. But I know mint can spread like crazy. Neither lemon balm or mint is typically used for a ground cover, but my mother always planted mint outside the bedroom window. With the window open during summer months, the smell of mint wafted through the room. It was quite pleasant.

It has a beautiful dark green hue and smells great! It’s one of those plants that can spread rapidly, so may be a good ground cover but can take over if you don’t keep track of it.
