[Verse 1]
I wake up every morning to see if you wrote
Sometimes you do, but mostly you don’t
And it’s been five weeks since we last spoke
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I think I see you on the street
Do you rehearse what you’d say if our eyes were to meet?
Do you stay clear of the house? Do you keep things discreet?
[Pre-Chorus]
All would be forgiven
All would be forgiven if you come back home
[Chorus]
And I wanna be yours again
And I-I-I-I wanna be yours again
And every sign I ignored or dismissed
Every blind spot I must’ve missed
Now you sleep on a couch just a few blocks away
And it’s all catching up to me
Yeah, it’s all catching up to me
[Verse 3]
And I’ve thought about all the ways I could hurt you
To even the score of feeling deserted
But some desperate displays, I know aren’t worth it
[Pre-Chorus]
All would be forgiven
All would be forgiven if you come back home
[Chorus]
And I wanna be yours again
And I-I-I-I wanna be yours again
And every sign I ignored or dismissed
Every blind spot I must’ve missed
Now you sleep on a couch just a few blocks away
And it’s all catching up to me
Yeah it’s all catching up to me
[Bridge]
A few months, a few years, we got lazy
I stop thinking ‘bout you
And looking back it’s a little bit hazy
When we started breaking in two
Fuck today, can we think about tomorrow?
And learn a little bit about what we’ve been through
You can’t find this at the supermarket
A little bit vintage, but it feels brand new
[Chorus]
And I wanna be yours again
And I-I-I-I wanna be yours again
And every sign I ignored or dismissed
Every blind spot I must’ve missed
Now you sleep on a couch just a few blocks away
And it’s all catching up to me
Yeah, it’s all catching up to me
Yeah, it’s all catching up – to me
