Verse 1
I leave the hallway light on
Like you're coming home tonight
Your side of the bed stays cold
But I still turn toward it twice
I know I shouldn't miss you
I know better than to call
But when the city gets quiet
You're the only thought I want
Pre-Chorus
Maybe I'm addicted to the ache
Maybe I just like your mistakes
You disappear without a warning
Then show up inside my dreams
Chorus
After you leave
The room still feels like you
I close my eyes
But I can't escape the truth
We were never meant to last
Still, I keep reaching for the past
After you leave
I'm still waiting for you
Verse 2
Your name is underneath my tongue
But I never let it out
I've learned how to look unaffected
While falling apart somehow
You know exactly where to find me
When you're lonely after dark
And I hate that one small message
Still knows how to break my heart
Bridge
Maybe we were never love
Maybe we were just two lonely souls
Trying to make a home
Out of somewhere we couldn't belong
Final Chorus
After you leave
I still hear you in the walls
Like a secret
I was never meant to call
If loving you was my mistake
Then let me make it one more time
After you leave
I'll pretend you're still mine
Outro
Don't come back...
unless you mean it.
