If You Ever Come Back Songtext
von The Script

If you′re standin' with your suitcase
But you can′t step on the train
Everything's the way that you left it
I still haven't slept yet

And if you′re coverin′ your face now
But you just can't hide the pain
Still settin′ two plates on the counter
But eatin' without ya

If the truth is, you′re a liar
When you say that you're okay
I′m sleepin on your side of the bed
Goin' out of my head now

And if you're out there, tryna move on
But somethin′ pulls you back again
I′m sittin' here tryin′ to persuade you
Like you're in the same room


And I wish you could give me the cold shoulder
And I wish you could still give me a hard time
And I wish I could still wish it was over
But even if wishin′ is a waste of time
Even if I never cross your mind

I'll leave the door on the latch
If you ever come back, if you ever come back
There′ll be a light in the hall and a key under the mat
If you ever come back

There'll be a smile on my face and the kettle on
And it will be just like you were never gone
There'll be a light in the hall and a key under the mat
If you ever come back, if you ever come back now
Oh, if you ever come back, if you ever come back now

Now they say I′m wastin′ my time
'Cause you′re never comin' home
But they used to say the world was flat
But how wrong was that now?

And by leavin′ my door open
I'm riskin′ everythin' I own
There's nothin′ I can lose in a break in
That you haven′t taken


And I wish you could give me the cold shoulder
And I wish you could still give me a hard time
And I wish I could still wish it was over
But even if wishin' is a waste of time
Even if I never cross your mind

I′ll leave the door on the latch
If you ever come back, if you ever come back
There'll be a light in the hall and a key under the mat
If you ever come back

There′ll be a smile on my face and the kettle on
And it will be just like you were never gone
There'll be a light in the hall and a key under the mat
If you ever come back, if you ever come back now
If you ever come back, if you ever come back now (oh-ooh, oh-ooh)
Yeah, oh

If it′s the fightin' you remember
Or the little things you miss
I know you're out there somewhere
So just remember this
If it′s the fightin′ you remember
Or the little things you miss
Oh, just remember this, oh, just remember this

I'll leave the door on the latch
If you ever come back, if you ever come back
There′ll be a light in the hall and a key under the mat
If you ever come back

There'll be a smile on my face and the kettle on
And it will be just like you were never gone
There′ll be a light in the hall and a key under the mat
If you ever come back, if you ever come back now
If you ever come back, if you ever come back (oh-ooh, oh-ooh)
Yeah, oh

It will be just like you were never gone
And it will be just like you were never gone
And it will be just like you were never gone
If you ever come back, if you ever come back now
