[Verse 1]
If I keep holding out, will the light shine through?
Under this broken roof, it's only rain that I feel
I've been wishing out the days, come back
I have been planning out, all that I'd say to you
Since you slipped away, know that I still remain true
I've been wishing out the days
Please say, that if you hadn't of gone now
I wouldn't have lost you another way
From wherever you are, come back
[Chorus]
And these days, they linger on
And in the night, as I'm waiting for
The real possibility that I may meet you in my dream
I go to sleep
[Verse 2]
If I don't fall apart, will my memories stay clear?
So you had to go, and I had to remain here
But the strangest thing to date
So far away
And yet you feel so close
And I'm not going to question it any other way
There must be an open door
For you to come back
[Chorus]
And the days, they linger on
And every night, what I'm waiting for
Is the real possibility I may meet you in my dream
[Verse 3]
And sometimes you're there
And you're talking back to me
Come the morning I could swear you're next to me
And it's okay
[Outro]
It's okay
I'll be here, come back, come back
I'll be here, come back, come back
I'll be here, come back, come back
If I keep holding out, will the light shine through?
Under this broken roof, it's only rain that I feel
I've been wishing out the days, come back
I have been planning out, all that I'd say to you
Since you slipped away, know that I still remain true
I've been wishing out the days
Please say, that if you hadn't of gone now
I wouldn't have lost you another way
From wherever you are, come back
[Chorus]
And these days, they linger on
And in the night, as I'm waiting for
The real possibility that I may meet you in my dream
I go to sleep
[Verse 2]
If I don't fall apart, will my memories stay clear?
So you had to go, and I had to remain here
But the strangest thing to date
So far away
And yet you feel so close
And I'm not going to question it any other way
There must be an open door
For you to come back
[Chorus]
And the days, they linger on
And every night, what I'm waiting for
Is the real possibility I may meet you in my dream
[Verse 3]
And sometimes you're there
And you're talking back to me
Come the morning I could swear you're next to me
And it's okay
[Outro]
It's okay
I'll be here, come back, come back
I'll be here, come back, come back
I'll be here, come back, come back
