If This Was a Movie

Last night I heard my own heart beating

Sounded like footsteps on my stairs.

Six months gone and I'm still reaching

Even though I know you're not there

I was playing back a thousand memories, baby.

Thinking 'bout everything we've been through

Maybe I've been going back too much lately

When time stood still and I had you.

Come back, come back, come back to me like

You would, you would if this was a movie

Stand in the rain outside 'til I came out

Come back, come back, come back to me like

You could, you could if

You just said you're sorry

I know that we could work it out somehow

But if this was a movie you'd be here by now.

I know people change and these things happen

But I remember how it was back then

Locked up in your arms

And our friends are laughing

'cause nothing like this, ever happened to them,

Now I'm pacing up the hall,

Chasing down your street

Flashback to a night when you said to me,

Nothing's gonna change, not for me and you

Not before I knew how much I had to lose.

Come back, come back, come back to me like

You would, you would if this was a movie,

Stand in the rain outside 'until I came out

Come back, come back, come back to me like

You could, you could if you just said you're sorry

I know that we could work it out somehow.

But if this was a movie you'd be here by now.

If you're out there

If you're somewhere

If you're moving on

I'll be waiting for you

Ever since you've been gone.

I just want it back the way it was before

And I just want to see you back at my front door.

Come back, come back, come back to me like

You did before you said " It's not that easy"

Before the fight, before I left you out.

But I take it all back now

and say

Come back, come back, come back to me like

You would, you would if this was a movie

Stand in the rain outside 'til I came out

Come back, come back, come back to me like

You could, you could if you just said you're sorry

I know that we could work it out somehow

But if this was a movie you'd be here by now.

You'd be here by now.

Come back, come back, come back to me.

Come back, come back, come back to me,

You'd be here by now.
