Come Back to me

Intro

Mm-mm

Mm-hmm-mm

Verse 1

You left the lamp still burning low

I count the hours soft and slow

Your name sits heavy on my tongue

Half a prayer and half a song

Pre-Chorus

I keep the doorway open wide

For the sound of you outside

Chorus

Come back to me

Come back to me

Every star I named was yours

Come back to me

Come back to me

The rain still knows your footsteps on the floors

Humming

Mm-mm-mm

Mm-hmm-mm-mm

Verse 2

My mother asks me why I smile

I tell her nothing for a while

Then the truth spills out like rice

Scattered gold and sacrifice

Pre-Chorus

I fold your letters into birds

And set them free without a word

Chorus

Come back to me

Come back to me

Every star I named was yours

Come back to me

Come back to me

The rain still knows your footsteps on the floors

Bridge

Loving you is sweet and sore

A door I cannot close

A wound I would not trade for more

A garden no one grows

Humming

Mm-mm-mm

Mm-hmm-mm

Chorus

Come back to me

Come back to me

Every star I named was yours

Come back to me

Come back to me

This heart keeps every key it stores

Humming

Mm-mm-mm

Mm-hmm-mm-mm
