[Verse 1] Coffee on the counter Keys still in the door You said, “I won’t be long” Then vanished down the hall [Chorus] You said, “Be right back” Like it’s just a second But the clock keeps talking And your chair stays empty You said, “Be right back” Like the world’s on pause I keep replaying that Be right back, be right back [Verse 2] TV on the menu Phone face down, still bright I hear your laugh in echoes In every quiet light [Chorus] You said, “Be right back” Like it’s just a second But the clock keeps talking And your chair stays empty You said, “Be right back” Like the world’s on pause I keep replaying that Be right back, be right back
