Come Back Honest

เนื้อเพลง

[Verse 1] You left your blue mug by the kitchen tap A folded receipt inside your paperback I found the note you wrote in hurried ink “Call me when you know what you really think” [Pre-Chorus] I kept the answer underneath my tongue Counting all the ways I could have said it wrong [Chorus] If you come back, come back honest No borrowed words, no careful promise I can take the truth if you can stand near me Say what you mean, and let me hear it clearly If you come back, come back honest Leave the door wide, leave the silence harmless I don’t need forever written in the sky Just one real reason not to say goodbye [Verse 2] Your jacket’s still hanging behind the chair The sleeve keeps brushing like you’re almost there I changed the lock but not the habit yet I turn around when someone says your name [Pre-Chorus] I kept the answer underneath my tongue Waiting for the courage we were missing once [Chorus] If you come back, come back honest No borrowed words, no careful promise I can take the truth if you can stand near me Say what you mean, and let me hear it clearly If you come back, come back honest Leave the door wide, leave the silence harmless I don’t need forever written in the sky Just one real reason not to say goodbye [Bridge] Maybe love is less about the keeping More about the things we stop concealing If there’s still a place where we can start Bring the whole truth, not the easy part [Final Chorus] If you come back, come back honest No borrowed words, no careful promise I can take the truth if you can stand near me Say what you mean, and let me hear it clearly If you come back, come back honest Leave the door wide, leave the silence harmless I don’t need forever written in the sky Just one real reason not to say goodbye [Outro] The blue mug waits beside the tap Come back honest, and we’ll start from that
