[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
You've been gone much longer than you
Ever said you had the plan to
I'm just gonna wait 'til you come home

[Verse 2]
Though I count the days, they're grey without you
The weather's much better when I think about you
I'm just gonna wait 'til you come home

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 3]
Empty glasses, burnt out matches
Curtains drawn on near-full blackness
I'm sleeping through the day you're coming home
To reclaim this heart you owned

[Chorus]
Lover, leave me
Make me burn
You're coming back!
You're coming back!
I'll wait patiently
For your return
You're coming back!
You're coming back!
[Post-Chorus]
I'm clutching at straws
I'm climbing up the walls
But every time I fall
Back into my hole
I'm feeling like a wretch
I'm looking for a catch
But you're an itch that I can't scratch
I know you're coming back

[Verse 4]
You've been gone so long you're fading
And it takes all the time I can find just retaining
Thoughts of things we did while you were here
But I know you will return my dear

[Interlude]
La composition

[Chorus]
Lover, leave me
Make me burn
You're coming back!
You're coming back!
I'll wait patiently
For your return
You're coming back!
You're coming back!
[Post-Chorus]
I'm clutching at straws
(You've been gone much longer than you)
I'm climbing up the walls
(Ever said you had the plan to)
But every time I fall
(I'm just gonna wait 'til you come home)
Back into my hole
I'm feeling like a wretch
(Though I count the days, they're grey without you)
I'm looking for a catch
(The weather's much better when I think about you)
But you're an itch that I can't scratch
(I'm just gonna wait 'til you come home)
I know you're coming back

[Outro]
You're coming back!
Oh, you're coming back!
