This song describes the difficulty of finding yourself single after an important relationship. Do you usually read through the lyrics and guess which words fit the gaps before you listen to the song? I’d like you to try that today, you may be surprised at how well you can understand the context! As always, please let me know if you have any requests for songs or artists in the future!
If you're standing with your _1_
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 covering your _2_ now
But you just can't hide the _3_
Still setting two plates on the counter but eating without ya
If the truth is you're a liar
When you say that you're okay
I'm sleeping on your side of the bed going out of my head now
And if you're out there trying to move on
But something pulls you back again
I'm sitting here trying to _4_ 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 wishing 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 _5_ 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 they say I'm _6_ my time
Cause you're never coming home
But they used to say the _7_ was flat but how wrong was that now
