Settle down, I want you to come back home
You've been gone for way too long
And I've been waiting on your letters
Saying where I was wrong
Cause I know that it's always my fault
If there's a chance you're thinking about making amends
I'm thinking about taking a chance
And I don't know if you're aware but I'm falling apart

You think that you know me
You think you know just what I'm thinking
But I know what you're thinking
And I can still feel you breathing

And I'll stay, I won't go away
I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times
I'll stay, I won't go away
I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times before

And it's like Mama always said
Sometimes you can't win for losing
I know when I'm losing you
And this house just seems so empty without you
And I keep telling myself that you'll come back
But I'm dreaming
I'm hoping you'll make my lies the truth
And come back home

But you think that you know me
You think you know just what I'm thinking
But I know what you're thinking
And I can still feel you breathing

And I'll stay, I won't go away
I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times
I'll stay, I won't go away
I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times before
