[Verse 1]
I want to be there when the morning breaks
Light in the dark
I want to be there when your daughter paints
Her fingers

[Chorus]
Write back (Write back), write back (Write back)
Come back (Come back), come back (Come back)
Write back (Write back), write back (Write back)
Come back (Come back), come back (Come back)

[Verse 2]
Given the chance, I'd take it
You walk my way, I'll be yours
Let your fingers tap to the rhythm of my heart
We haven't met, but I'll be right back

[Chorus]
Write back (Write back), write back (Write back)
Come back (Come back), come back (Come back)
Write back (Write back), write back (Write back)
Come back (Come back), come back (Come back)

[Verse 3]
Cool wind cut through my heart
Wax the key to my part
Give in to the green light flicker
You run the bath and I'll warm the pasta, girl

[Chorus]
Write back (Write back), write back (Write back)
Come back (Come back), come back (Come back)
Write back (Write back), write back (Write back)
Come back (Come back), come back (Come back)

[Refrain]
Are you gonna be there when the love is gone?
Are you gonna be there when the love is gone?
Are you gonna be there when the love is gone?
Are you gonna be there when the love is gone?
[Verse 4]
Given the chance, I'd take it
You walk my way, I'll be yours
Let your fingers tap to the rhythm of my heart
We haven't met, but I'll be right back

[Chorus]
Write back (Write back), write back (Write back)
Come back (Come back), come back (Come back)
Write back (Write back), write back (Write back)
Come back (Come back), come back (Come back)

[Refrain]
Are you gonna be there when the love is gone?
Are you gonna be there when the love is gone?
Are you gonna be there when the love is gone?
Are you gonna be there? Are, are you gonna be there?
Are you gonna be there when the love is gone?
Are you gonna be there when the love is gone?
Are you gonna be there when the love is gone?
Are you gonna be there? Are, are you gonna be there?
