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 you'd stay (you'd stay)

With every single night I'd have to face

With every single dream I'd 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, yeah

I would 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 ah and I, I can't let you go, so when you're ready, come back home
