Lyrics
[Verse 1] I kept your note In a paper cup By the sink Where the water drips Your shoes by the door Still face the hall Like they’re waiting For you to call [Pre-Chorus] And I try to act fine But the room tells on me Every little thing Still leans your way [Chorus] Come back slow Come back slow I still leave the porch light low Come back slow Come back slow I’ve been here all night long [Verse 2] The blue dish towel Still smells like rain I fold it once Then unfold again The screen door sighs When the wind comes through And I swear that sound Still sounds like you [Pre-Chorus] And I try to act fine But the room tells on me Every little thing Still leans your way [Chorus] Come back slow Come back slow I still leave the porch light low Come back slow Come back slow I’ve been here all night long [Bridge] If you lost your map Follow my name If you forgot your way I’ll do the same One small step Then another one I can wait Till you’re nearly home [Chorus] Come back slow Come back slow I still leave the porch light low Come back slow Come back slow I’ve been here all night long
