Lyrics

Mmm,
Baby, every time you walk away,
Feels like the walls breathe out and the room gets cold,
I ain't myself without you.
The morning light don't shine the same,
Coffee tastes bitter when I whisper your name.
I reach across the bed, but you're not there
Just an empty pillow and a midnight prayer.
I keep your sweatshirt hanging on my chair,
Breathing in the memories you left in the air.
I wear it like armor when I'm feelin' alone,
'Cause loving you, baby, feels just like home.
Every heartbeat echoes slow and long,
I try to stay steady, but I'm not that strong.
Your touch is the rhythm my soul moves on
Now the tempo's gone.
When you're gone, I'm restless
Like a song with no melody, missing its essence.
When you're gone, I'm weightless
Floating in spaces where your love once kept me steady.
Oh, baby, come back home,
'Cause I'm not me when you're gone.
I hear your laugh in every passing sound,
Turnin' my head like maybe you're around.
But shadows play tricks when I'm feelin' low,
And time runs slower than I've ever known.
Dinner for one feels colder each night,
I set your plate anyway, like you're in my sight.
My heart keeps waiting for a key in the door,
But silence is all that I'm bracing for.
I walk our halls just to feel your ghost,
Whispering the things that I miss the most.
The way you'd hold me like the world made sense
Now everything feels too intense.
Come back, come back,
I need your heartbeat next to mine.
Come back, come back,
You're the reason my stars align.
Baby, love ain't the same,
When you're gone.
Sometimes I sleep wrapped in your side of the bed,
So I can dream of something warm instead.
But even dreams fade when the morning breaks
Oh, the ache it makes.
I check my phone more than I care to confess,
Every minute hoping you'll break the emptiness.
Just one little message to pull me through
Some sweet reminder that you miss me too.
The nights get long and the city feels wide,
Every street I walk reminds me you're not by my side.
Your love used to fill every corner of this place
Now I chase your trace.
I know we're strong, I know love bends,
But baby, it's hard when the road never ends.
If distance is the price for loving you this deep,
I'll pay it again, even when it steals my sleep.
But hurry, baby, hurry home to me.
'Cause my soul is tired of wandering alone,
This body's a house but with you it's a home.
And I'll keep the light burning in our window frame
Till the moment you whisper my name.
When you're gone, I'm hollow
Like a sky with no sunrise, no tomorrow.
When you're gone, I'm aching
Every breath I take feels like my heart's breaking.
Oh, baby, come back home…
'Cause I'm not me when you're gone.
Mmm,
I'll be right here, waiting in the quiet dawn,
Till the day the door opens and you're back where you belong.
Home ain't home,
When you're gone.
