 If you're standing  with your suitcase
 But you can't step on the train
Everything's  the way that you left it I still haven't slept yet
 And if you're covering  your face now
 But you just can't hide the pain
 Still  setting two plates on the counter but eating without 'cha
 If the truth  is you're a liar
 When you say that you're okay
I'm  sleepin on your side of the bed goin' out of my head now
 And if you're out  there try'na move on
 But somethin' pulls you back again
I'm  sitting here try'na persuade you like your in the same room
 And I wish  you could give me the cold shoulder
 And I wish  you could still give me a hard  time
 And I wish  I could still wish it was over
 But even if wishing  is a waste of time
 Even if I never cross your mind
 I'll leave the door  on the latch
 If you ever come back if you ever  come back
 There'll be a light  in the hall and a key under the mat
 If you ever  come back
 There'll be a smile  on my face and the kettle on
 And it will be  just like you were never gone
 There'll be a light  in the hall and a key under the mat
 If you ever  come back if you ever come back now
 Oh if you ever  come back if you ever come back now
 Now they say  I'm wasting my time
 'Cause you're never commin home
But  they used to say the world was flat but how wrong was that now
 And by leavin'  my door open
 I'm risking everythin' I own
There's  nothin' I can lose in a break-in that you haven't taken
 And I wish  you could give me the cold shoulder
 And I wish  you could still give me a hard  time
 And I wish  I could still wish it was over
 But even if wishing  is a waste of time
 Even if I never cross your mind
 I'll leave the door  on the latch
 If you ever come back if you ever  come back
 There'll be a light  in the hall and a key under the mat
 If you ever  come back
 There'll be a smile  on my face and the kettle on
 And it will be  just like you were never gone
 There'll be a light  in the hall and a key under the mat
 If you ever  come back if you ever come back now
 Oh if you ever  come back if you ever come back now
 If it's the fighting  you remember or the little  things you miss
 I know  you're out there somewhere so just  remember this
 If it's the fighting  you remember or the little  things you miss
 Oh just remember this, oh just remember this
 I'll leave the door  on the latch
 If you ever come back if you ever  come back
 There'll be a light  in the hall and a key under the mat
 If you ever  come back
 There'll be a smile  on my face and the kettle on
 And it will be  just like you were never gone
 There'll be a light  in the hall and a key under the mat
 If you ever  come back if you ever come back now
 Oh if you ever  come back if you ever come back now
 And it will be  just like you were never gone
 And it will be  just like you were never gone
 And it will be  just like you were never gone
 If you ever come back if you ever come back now
