I hoped you'd stay just a little bit longer And I hoped you'd keep calling With every single day I have to face I wonder why our love was stolen away With every single breath I have to waste I'm burning like a fire Will someone help my pain? I'm drowning above the water Oh, help me breathe again And I, I can't let you go So when you're ready, come back home I'd like to say I'm sorry And I thought that you'd stay (you'd stay) With every single night I have to face With every single dream I have to chase I wonder if our love's in the same place I'm burning like a fire Will someone help my pain? I'm drowning above the water Oh, help me breathe again And I, I can't let you go So when you're ready, come back home I will try and be the man that I said I would Just come back home And I'll try, I'll try 'cause I said I would Just come back home I will try and be the man that I said I would Just come back home And I'll try, and I'll try, and I'll try Come back home, please come back home I'm burning like a fire Will someone help my pain? I'm drowning above the water Oh, help me breathe again Oh I, and I, I can't let you go So when you're ready, come back home
