You've been gone much longer than you Ever said you had the plan to I'm just gonna wait 'till you come home 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 till you come home 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 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! 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 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
