Lyrics

[Verse 1]
A warning sign
I missed the good part then I realized
I started looking and the bubble burst
I started looking for excuses
[Verse 2]
Come on in
I've got to tell you what a state I'm in
I've got to tell you in my loudest tones
That I started looking for a warning sign
[Chorus]
When the truth is, I miss you
Yeah, the truth is, that I miss you so
[Verse 3]
A warning sign
You came back to haunt me and I realized
That you were an island and I passed you by
When you were an island to discover
[Verse 4]
Come on in
I've got to tell you what a state I'm in
I've got to tell you in my loudest tones
That I started looking for a warning sign
[Chorus]
When the truth is, I miss you
Yeah, the truth is, that I miss you so
And I'm tired
I should not have let you go
[Bridge]
So I crawl back into your open arms
Yes, I crawl back into your open arms
And I crawl back into your open arms
Yes, I crawl back into your open arms
Written by: Chris Martin, Guy Berryman, Jonny Buckland, Will Champion
