[Verse 1]
Did you ever see me as your lover?
When you were lying in my bed
Was there another in-between us under covers?
Someone hiding in your head
I remember when you told me you were lonely
I said, "I could probably make that go away"
You said, "I just want somebody who can hold me
And make it feel like everything will be okay"
[Pre-Chorus]
I, I
I can't get out 'cause I'm in too deep
I, I
I shouldn't want you if you don't want me
[Chorus]
Your Polaroids and old cassettes
Are all I have after you left me
Hanging on
By a thread at the end of it
You kept me here to let me go
You loved me fast and killed me slow
And I
Only wanted to come home
[Post-Chorus]
(Mm, mm)
[Verse 2]
Did you ever see me as your lover
When you were crying on my chest?
Or was I the bandage holding you together?
Just using me to get some rest
I remember when you told me that you missed me
You were studying in Paris in the fall
You said, "Honestly, I wish that you were with me"
Then a week went by and you didn't call, damn
[Pre-Chorus]
I, I
I can't get out 'cause I'm in too deep
I, I
I shouldn't want you if you don't want me
[Chorus]
Your Polaroids and old cassettes
Are all I have after you left me
Hanging on
By a thread at the end of it (Oh)
You kept me here to let me go
You loved me fast and killed me slow
And I
Only wanted to come home
[Outro]
I can't get out 'cause I'm in too deep
Only wanted to come home (Oh)
I shouldn't want you if you don't want me
