[Verse 1]

             
If you're stan

              
ding with your

              
 suitcase

But you can't step on the train

Everything's t

he way that yo

u left it I st

ill haven't sl

ept yet

              
And if you're 

             
covering your 

           
face now

But you just can't hide the pain
 
Still setting 

two plates on 

the counter bu

t eating witho

ut 'cha

             
If the truth i

              
s you're a lia

      
r

When you say that you're okay

I'm sleepin on

 your side of 

the bed goin' 

out of my head

 now

              
And if you're 

             
out there try'

               
na move on

But somethin' pulls you back again

I'm sitting he

re try'na pers

uade you like 

your in the sa

me room


[Pre-Chorus]

            
And I wish you

              
 could give me

              
 the cold shou

  
lder
             
And I wish you

              
 could still g

             
ive me a hard 


time
            
And I wish I c

              
ould still wis

           
h it was over
            
But even if wi

shing is a was

te of time
Even if I never cross your mind


[Chorus]

              
I'll leave the

 
 door on the l

atch
              
If you ever co

              
me back if you

 
 ever come bac

k
              
There'll be a 

 
light in the h

all and a key 

under the mat
       
If you ever co

me back
              
There'll be a 


smile on my fa

ce and the ket

tle on
            
And it will be

 just like you

 were never go

ne
              
There'll be a 


light in the h

all and a key 

under the mat
             
If you ever co

Oh if you ever

              
 come back if 

              
you ever come 

          
back now


[Verse 2]

             
Now they say I

              
'm wasting my 

       
time

'Cause you're never commin home

But they used 

to say the wor

ld was flat bu

t how wrong wa

s that now

             
And by leavin'

                 
 my door open

I'm risking everythin' I own

There's nothin

' I can lose i

n a break-in t

hat you haven'

t taken


[Pre-Chorus]

            
And I wish you

              
 could give me

              
 the cold shou

  
lder
             
And I wish you

              
 could still g

time
            
And I wish I c

But even if wi

Even if I never cross your mind
