[Verse 1] You left your jacket on the kitchen chair A silver zipper catching morning air I held the sleeve like it could tell me why You chose the exit, never said goodbye [Pre-Chorus] I count the footsteps down the hall One by one, then lose them all If I call, will you turn around? If I break, will you hear the sound? [Chorus] Come back before the record ends I still know where the story bends Your name comes bright through every chord I want the life we almost fought for Oh-oh, don’t let me go Oh-oh, I need you close [Verse 2] Your coffee cup is drying by the sink The lipstick mark is lighter than I think I found the postcard from that summer town The one where we swore we’d never settle down [Pre-Chorus] The room gets smaller when I breathe Your old blue sweater hangs from me If I call, will you turn around? If I break, will you hear the sound? [Chorus] Come back before the record ends I still know where the story bends Your name comes bright through every chord I want the life we almost fought for Oh-oh, don’t let me go Oh-oh, I need you close [Bridge] Maybe the night was hard on both our hearts Maybe the silence pulled us far apart I’m not asking for a perfect start Just meet me where we stopped [Final Chorus] Come back before the record ends I still know where the story bends Your name comes bright through every chord I want the life we almost fought for Oh-oh, don’t let me go Oh-oh, I need you close Hey! Come back, come back! Oh-oh, don’t let me go Oh-oh, I need you close [Outro] Your jacket’s still on the kitchen chair I’ll leave the light on waiting there & @ & { by ROBERT DIESIS } & @ &
