When You Come Back, I'll Be Here

Three simple words, lay me down softly
They have saved my life, that day do you recall me

Letting down my guard, nowhere else to go
Held me in your arms, realized the true meaning of home

I don't want you to know about the tears I've cried
And I don't want you to fret about my sleepless nights

Say I love you, promise me
Send me little signs so I can feel that you are near
Since I love you, set you free
For awhile, and when you come back I'll be here

I'll be here

Slip through my fingers
Into a state of grace
I don't want to leave her
But to beg she stay isn't my place

So I'll go out, lay underneath the stars
There's something about looking up to see my heart

I don't want you to know I'm scared to say goodbye
But I know you'll shine the brightest in that diamond sky

Say I love you, promise me
Send me little signs so I can feel that you are near
Since I love you, set you free
For awhile, and when you come back I'll be
In your glow eternally
Planted your seed so deep in me
When the winter kills the green
I know you'll come back every spring so I'll be here

My feet cemented in the ground
Till the whole world comes crashing down
Because I know you're gonna come back around
Whether I see you in the flesh
Or feel your gentle palm press against my cheek
But it turns out to be just the breeze
Whispering through the trees
Saying you never truly left me
So here is where I'll be
When you come back to me

Since I love you set you free
When you come back I'll be here
