I've been searching for an answer
Told myself it's better
That you really made that choice
That you always had a voice
But deep inside I knew you never
You never even met her
You were barely just eighteen
When you gave up on all your dreams
So when I thought that you'd be there for me
I was wrong
I was wrong
I was wrong
Growing up without a damn thing
Seeing you leave
I can't cry on your shoulder
As we're getting older
Knowing that you feel the same pain
Feeling you bleed
As the world's getting colder
The night's still not over
Come home
Come home
Come home
Come home to me, don't leave
Come home
Come home
Come home
Come home to me, don't leave
And when you said, you were scared that
You'll never get to choose
If you ever finish school
Cuz you'll be married way too soon
That's when I lied to see you less sad
Denied myself the truth
I was hoping you were wrong
That there was nothing going on
But when I thought that you'd stay here with me
You were gone
You were gone
You were gone
Growing up without a damn thing
Seeing you leave
I can't cry on your shoulder
As we're getting older
Knowing that you feel the same pain
Feeling you bleed
As the world's getting colder
The night's still not over
Come home
Come home
Come home
Come home to me, don't leave
Come home
Come home
Come home
Come home to me, don't leave
