Settle down, I want you to come back home
You've been gone for way to long
And I've been waiting on your letters saying where I went wrong
Because I know that it's always my fault
but there's a chance that you've been thinking about making amends
and I'm thinking about taking a chance
and I don't know if your aware but I'm falling apart

You think that you know me, you think you know just what I'm thinking
but I know what your thinking and I can still feal you breathing.

And I'll stay,
I won't go away,
I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times,
I'll stay, I won't go away,
I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times before.

And it's like momma always said,
Sometimes you can't win for losing,
I know when I'm losing you.
And this house just seems so empty without you.

And I keep telling myself that you'll come back,
But I'm dreaming, I'm hoping you'll make my lies the truth,
And come back home.
But you think that you know me,
You think you know just what I'm thinking
But I know what your thinking, and I can still feel you breathing.

And I'll stay,
I won't go away,
I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times,
I'll stay, I won't go away,
I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times before.

And I'll stay,
I won't go away,
I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times,
I'll stay, I won't go away,
I won't let you down like I've done a thousand times before.
