They say if you love something That you should hold it tight So it should come as no surprise That I will put up a fight Sometimes it still feels like you're lying next to me I turn my head to speak but then I find it hard to breathe Have all these words I've spoken just disappeared into the black? 'Cause I'm just waiting on you to say, "I want my baby back."

It feels like I'm chasing the moon When I'm chasing you No matter how far I drive in this car Still in the same place you were Still can't get over the hurt So please, come a little closer Closer like we were before The only way to get through this pain Is to give this a little bit more, more Running 'round in circles, chasing our ghosts But we're not dead yet We've still got love in this regret It feels like you're chasing me too 'Cause I know the truth I'm here in the sun and I won't run 'Till I run to you Time only feels so cruel So please, come a little closer Closer like we were before The only way to get through this pain Is to give this a little bit more, more Running 'round in circles, chasing our ghosts But we're not dead yet We've still got love in this regret I feel you so near, although you're not here Do you feel me too? I feel your light shining with me in the night You haven't forgotten me So please, please, please Please, come a little closer Closer like we were before The only way to get through this pain Is to give me a little bit more, more Running 'round in circles, chasing our ghosts But we're not dead yet I know we've got this love again

I haven't been much of a dreamer lately 'Cause I haven't been seeing you, baby Told you I would be okay Maybe I am, maybe I'm not But I still want you with me We haven't lost it all Tell me you'll lean on this love And we will never fall Maybe one day you'll find this And remember how much you loved me Or that it never went away And you've never really been free I won't leave as long as I believe I haven't been much of a dreamer lately 'Cause I haven't been seeing you, baby Told you I would be okay Maybe I am, maybe I'm not But I still want you with me We haven't lost it all Tell me you'll lean on this love And we will never fall Maybe one day I'll walk again Down these streets with you All the places you showed me Will once again be new I won't leave as long as I believe Time can heal, but it can't change how we feel Time can forgive, but it can never forget I could heal, but I could never forget I won't leave as long as I believe I haven't been much of a dreamer lately 'Cause I haven't been seeing you, baby Told you I would be okay Maybe I am, maybe I'm not But I still want you with me We haven't lost it all Tell me you'll lean on this love And we will never fall Just lean on me And you'll never need to fall

It's been awhile, I know it And I've got a lot to show for it Making my way to the finish line You'll be waiting there for me just in time To see me cross over into the light I only blame myself for the way it fell apart But we'll be together soon and make a brand new start 'Cause nothing is ever really lost, I say It just gets misplaced then found along the way You've always been that light guiding me Away from where I was hiding You've always been my Northern Star A reason to look up even in the dark Haven't been the best, I confess And I admit I was a mess Didn't want to rise above But you're the one who woke me up You can't say that isn't love I only blame myself for the way it fell apart But we'll be together soon and make a brand new start 'Cause nothing is ever really lost, I say It just gets misplaced then found along the way You've always been that light guiding me Away from where I was hiding You've always been my Northern Star A reason to look up even in the dark 'Cause now the only thing I'm missing is you And I know you've been missing me too I can't go back in time, but I can change my life And crawl out of the darkness that was my only friend To see you standing there And then this love will never go out again Nothing is ever really lost, I say It just gets misplaced then found along the way You've always been that light guiding me Away from where I was hiding You've always been my Northern Star A reason to look up even in the dark You're my reason to look up even in the dark

If you didn't love me, then you wouldn't care If you didn't love me, wouldn't breathe the same air If you didn't love me, you wouldn't be near If you didn't love me, then you wouldn't be here But you are, you're here and you care Living without me, oh you wouldn't dare You can deny it, but your eyes show it clear If you didn't love me, then you wouldn't be here If you didn't love me, then why do you speak? If you didn't love me, you'd turn the other cheek If you didn't love me, wouldn't believe in me so If you didn't love me, then you would just go But you don't, you're here and you speak Breathing without me, oh you'd grow so weak You can deny it, but I see your face, dear If you didn't love me, then you wouldn't be here You're here, you're here and you care Living without me, oh you wouldn't dare You can deny it, but your eyes show it clear If you didn't love me, then you wouldn't be here If you didn't love me, then why do I sense your fear? If you didn't love me, then you wouldn't be here I know you love me, and that's why you're here

Rebuild 04:46
We just need some time to open up our lives Open up our minds Find happiness in this trial But I know for sure that the way we were Will be the cure Once we walk this path a little while But I could travel the world, see every last corner I won't be satisfied, I won't find another It's too much too let go of, too important is this love This won't be the end Rebuild then begin again Trust me when I say, never meant to hurt you that way And I know today Is the start of forever No storm can keep me from seeing you so clearly This isn't a plea It's a promise I'll never break But I could travel the world, see every last corner I won't be satisfied, I won't find another It's too much too let go of, too important is this love This won't be the end Rebuild then begin again If I can't have you now, I'll have you in my dreams In my dreams If I can't see you now, I'll see you in my memories We'll be making more memories I don't want to travel the world, see every last corner I won't be satisfied, I won't find another It's too much too let go of, too important is our love This won't be the end Rebuild then begin again Gonna rebuild this love Then begin again

If you believe in something You should live it through and through So I've been sitting in my corner And I'm waiting for round two Sometimes it still feels like you're walking next to me I reach out for your hand but there's nothing there to see Have all these words I've spoken just disappeared into the black? 'Cause I'm just waiting for you to say, "I want my baby back." When are you coming home to me? When are you coming home to me? When are you coming home to me? When are you coming home? If these words were the last I said to you Then I would be content But I hope you know I'll always love you And I want my baby back
