Em
You've been gone much longer than you
Em
Ever said you had the plan to
Em
I'm just gonna wait 'til you come home
Em
Though I count the days, they're grey without you
Em
The weather's much better when I think about you
Am
I'm just gonna wait 'til you come home
Em
Empty glasses, burnt out matches
Em
Curtains drawn on near-full blackness
Em
I'm sleeping through the day you're coming home
Am
To reclaim this hardship home
Em
Never leave me
Em
Make me burn
Am
You're coming back
Em
You're coming back
Em
I'll wait patiently
Em
For your return
Am
You're coming back
Em
You're coming back
Em
I'm clutching at straws
Em
I'm climbing up the walls
Am
But every time I fall
Em
Back into my hole
Em
I'm feeling like a wretch
Em
I'm looking for a catch
Am
But you're an itch I can't stratch
Em
I know you're coming back
Em
You've been gone so long you're fading
Em
And it takes all the time I can find just retaining
Em
Thoughts of what we did while you were here
Am
But I know you will return, my dear
