Lyrics

Verse 1

Rain on the window pane

Counting every drop that falls

I wrote your name in fog again

On the glass against the hall

Still got your sweater in the drawer

Smells like cedar and December

Been a year since I locked that door

But I swear I still remember

Pre-Chorus

Fading photographs on the stair

Faces smiling like they don't care

Used to be so sure back then

Now I'm just a ghost in my own skin

Chorus

And I've been trying to find my way back home

Through the quiet streets I used to roam

Every shadow got your silhouette

Every whisper lingers in my chest

And I've been trying to find my way back home

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Back home

Oh-oh-oh

Mm-mm

Verse 2

Morning light on the subway tracks

Strangers rushing past my frame

I keep looking for the cracks

Hoping something feels the same

Old cassette still in the car

Plays the song we never finished

Funny how the distant stars

Still glow even when diminished

Pre-Chorus

Maybe I should finally learn

Some things fade but never burn

Let the pages turn tonight

Let the silence be alright

Chorus

And I've been trying to find my way back home

Through the quiet streets I used to roam

Every shadow got your silhouette

Every whisper lingers in my chest

And I've been trying to find my way back home

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Back home

Oh-oh-oh

Mm-mm

Bridge

Maybe home was never bricks and beams

Maybe home was just a feeling

Laughing till we lost our means

All the broken pieces healing

I can carry light inside

Even with the walls I hide

Chorus

And I've been trying to find my way back home

Through the quiet streets I used to roam

Every shadow got your silhouette

Every whisper lingers in my chest

And I've been trying to find my way back home

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Back home

Oh-oh-oh

I'm coming home

Oh-oh-oh

Mm-mm

Coming home now
