Текст песни
[Verse 1] You left your coffee by the window Still warm beneath the morning rain I held the cup and watched the porch swing Move like it remembered your name The screen door keeps a little daylight The kitchen clock forgets to chime I tell myself I’m only waiting But waiting takes up all my time [Chorus] If you come back, don’t bring excuses Don’t bring the past to lay beside me Just bring the truth you kept from saying And let your hands remind me [Verse 2] There’s a crease across the old photograph Where we were laughing by the car You wore that faded blue Sunday dress I wore a heart too proud by far I drove as far as Miller’s crossing Then turned around before the bridge Some roads are built to carry leaving Some keep you standing on the ridge [Chorus] If you come back, don’t bring excuses Don’t bring the past to lay beside me Just bring the truth you kept from saying And let your hands remind me [Bridge] I don’t need promises forever I don’t need heaven at my door Give me one honest conversation And I won’t ask for more [Instrumental Break] [Final Chorus] If you come back, come without hiding Come with the bruise and come with the blame I’ve kept a place beside the table Though I never said your name If you come back, I’ll stop pretending That losing you was something I chose There’s still a fire under the ashes There’s still a road beneath the snow [Outro] The coffee cup is cold by morning The porch swing moves, then settles down I leave the light above the doorway In case you ever come back around
