You reach for that bag

My chest goes tight

I watch the zipper

Like it holds my life

You tie your shoes slow

I lose my breath

I know it’s small, but

It feels like death

Say I’m not crazy

Say you’ll be back

Don’t make me chase

Every little crack

I’m trying to trust you

I’m trying to stay

But fear gets loud

When you walk away

Please come home

Choose us, Heather

Please come home

Stay with me, Heather

Don’t leave me here

With my hands shaking

Please come home

Choose us, Heather

You say stop watching

Everything I do

I know that hurts

I know it’s true

But when you turn the knob

And step outside

My mind makes a storm

Out of goodbye

I’m not your jailer

I’m just scared

I need your voice

To still be there

Tell me the truth

Give me one line

Say you’ll come back

And I’ll be fine

Please come home

Choose us, Heather

Please come home

Stay with me, Heather

Don’t leave me here

With my hands shaking

Please come home

Choose us, Heather

If love is a door

Then don’t slam it shut

If you need space

Let me know what’s up

I can work on me

You can work on you

Just say my name

And I’ll get through

Please come home

Choose us, Heather

Please come home

Stay with me, Heather

I’m scared, but I’m here

Still waiting on you

Please come home

Choose us, Heather
