Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If you're standing with your suitcase
But you can't step on the train
Everything's the way that you left it
I still haven't slept yet
[Verse 2]
And if you're covering your face now
But you just can't hide the pain
Still setting two plates on the counter
But eating without you
[Verse 3]
If the truth is you're a liar
Then just say that you're okay
I'm sleeping on your side of the bed
Going out of my head now
[Verse 4]
And if you're out there trying to move on
But something pulls you back again
I'm sitting here trying to persuade you
Like you're in the same room
[Verse 5]
And I wish you could give me the cold shoulder
And I wish you could still give me a hard time
And I wish I could still wish it was over
But even if wishing is a waste of time
Even if I never cross your mind
[Verse 6]
I'll leave the door on the latch
If you ever come back, if you ever come back
There'll be a light in the hall and a key under the mat
If you ever come back
[Verse 7]
There'll be a smile on my face and the kettle on
And it will be just like you were never gone
There'll be a light in the hall and a key under the mat
If you ever come back, if you ever come back now
Oh, if you ever come back, if you ever come back now
[Verse 8]
Now they say I'm wasting my time
'Cause you're never coming home
But they used to say the world was flat
But how wrong was that now?
[Verse 9]
And by leaving my door open
I'm risking everything I own
There's nothing I could lose in a break-in
That you haven't taken
[Verse 10]
And I wish you could give me the cold shoulder
And I wish you could still give me a hard time
And I wish I could still wish it was over
But even if wishing is a waste of time
Even if I never cross your mind
[Verse 11]
I'll leave the door on the latch
If you ever come back, if you ever come back
There'll be a light in the hall and a key under the mat
If you ever come back
[Verse 12]
There'll be a smile on my face and the kettle on
And it will be just like you were never gone
There'll be a light in the hall and a key under the mat
If you ever come back, if you ever come back now
If you ever come back, if you ever come back
[Verse 13]
If it's the fighting you remember
Or the little things you miss
I know you're out there somewhere
So just remember this
If it's the fighting you remember
Or the little things you miss
Oh, just remember this
Oh, just remember this
[Verse 14]
I'll leave the door on the latch
If you ever come back, if you ever come back
There'll be a light in the hall and a key under the mat
If you ever come back
[Verse 15]
There'll be a smile on my face and the kettle on
And it will be just like you were never gone
There'll be a light in the hall and a key under the mat
If you ever come back, if you ever come back now
If you ever come back, if you ever come back now
[Verse 16]
And it will be just like you were never gone
And it will be just like you were never gone
And it will be just like you were never gone
If you ever come back, if you ever come back now
