Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Last night I heard my own heart beating
Sounded like footsteps on my stairs
Six months gone and I'm still reaching
Even though I know you're not there
[Verse 2]
I was playing back a thousand memories, baby
Thinkin' 'bout everything we've been through
Maybe I've been goin' back too much lately
When time stood still and I had you
[Verse 3]
Come back, come back, come back to me like
You would, you would if this was a movie
Stand in the rain outside till I came out
[Verse 4]
Come back, come back, come back to me like
You could, you could if you just said you're sorry
I know that we could work it out somehow
But if this was a movie you'd be here by now
[Verse 5]
I know people change and these things happen
But I remember how it was back then
Locked up in your arms and our friends were laughing
'Cause nothing like this ever happened to them
[Verse 6]
Now, I'm pacing down the hall, chasing down your street
Flashback to the night when you said to me
"Nothing's gonna change, not for me and you"
Not before I knew how much I had to lose
[Verse 7]
Come back, come back, come back to me like
You would, you would if this was a movie
Stand in the rain outside till I came out
[Verse 8]
Come back, come back, come back to me like
You could, you could if you just said you're sorry
I know that we could work it out somehow
But if this was a movie you'd be here by now
[Verse 9]
If you're out there, if you're somewhere, if you're moving on
I've been waiting for you ever since you've been gone
I just want it back the way it was before
And I just wanna see you back at my front door
[Verse 10]
And I say come back, come back, come back to me like
You would before you said it's not that easy
Before the fight, before I locked you out
But I'd take it all back now
[Verse 11]
Come back, come back, come back to me like
You would, you would if this was a movie
Standing in the rain outside till I came out
[Verse 12]
Come back, come back, come back to me like
You could, you could if you just said you're sorry
I know that we could work it out somehow
But if this was a movie you'd be here by now
[Verse 13]
You'd be here by now
It's not the kind of ending you wanna see now
Baby, what about the ending?
Oh, I thought you'd be here by now
Oh, oh, thought you'd be here by now
