[Verse 1] I found your letter underneath the old porch chair Folded twice, with summer dust still there You wrote my name like nothing had gone wrong But every line told me how long you'd been gone [Verse 2] The screen door creaks when the evening settles in I hear your truck in every passing wind Your coffee cup is chipped along the side I keep it where you left it, though I know you won't arrive [Chorus] If you come back, don't come back halfway Bring the truth you couldn't say I've been holding this house together with both hands Come back a stranger, or come back my man [Verse 3] Down by the river, the sycamore has grown Its roots remember places we once called home I played our song on a weathered six-string And let the water carry off everything [Chorus] If you come back, don't come back halfway Bring the truth you couldn't say I've been holding this house together with both hands Come back a stranger, or come back my man [Bridge] I won't beg the morning for a sign I won't trade my peace to change your mind But if forgiveness finds you on the road You know the light is on, you know the door is closed [Instrumental] [Final Chorus] If you come back, don't come back halfway Bring the truth you couldn't say I've been holding this house together with both hands Come back a stranger, or come back my man [Outro] The letter's on the table, the night is turning blue I loved you like a river, but I won't drown for you
