[Verse 1]
I see your shadow on the street now
I hear you push through the rusty gate
Click of your heels on the concrete
Waiting for a knock coming way too late
It seems an age since I've seen you
Countdown as the weeks trickle into days

[Pre-Chorus]
So you come in and put your bags down
I know there's something in the air
How can I do this to you right now
If you're over there when I need you here?

[Chorus]
My happiness is slowly creeping back
Now you're at home
If it ever starts sinking in
It must be when you pack up and go

[Verse 2]
It seems an age since I've seen you
Countdown as the weeks trickle into days
I hope that time hasn't changed you
All I really want is for you to stay
[Pre-Chorus]
So you come in and put your bags down
I know there's something in the air
How can I do this to you right now?
If you're over there when I need you here

[Chorus]
My happiness is slowly creeping back
Now you're at home
If it ever starts sinking in
It must be when you pack up and go

[Bridge]
I know, I know, I know what is inside
I know, I know, I know what is inside
I know, I know, I know what is inside
I know, I know, I know what is inside
I know, I know, I know what is inside

[Pre-Chorus]
You're over there when I need you here

[Chorus]
My happiness is slowly creeping back
Now you're at home
If it ever starts sinking in
It must be when you pack up and go
My happiness is slowly creeping back
Now you're at home
If it ever starts sinking in
It must be when you pack up and go
