Waiting for my boy to come back to me

WAITING FOR MY BOY TO COME BACK TO ME (E A D G B E, capo 1)

When will my boy come back to me? I don’t know if I’ll ever go back to sleep. The moon is white as snow tonight. He is out there, I’m stuck inside. And all I have are memories. When will he come back to me?

 

The night is cold but my window is open. It helps me feel just a little closer. On the wind drifts a lonely song. The candle won’t stay lit for long. And all I have is this view. Will he wait for me, too?

 

And when I cross that broken line. When the horizon fills with light. Morning comes and I haven’t slept. I’m mourning things that haven’t happened yet. I’m crying over things that haven’t happened yet.

 

Can I spend another day with my boy so far away? Sitting by the window just waiting for him to come home. I’m waiting for you to come home. I just need you to come home.

Like trees

LIKE TREES (E A D F G E)

Blow like trees out the window. Today you have seen it all.

Wherever you were. Whatever you did. Whoever you are.

The sky is grey but they say it will clear.

Let me stay

LET ME STAY (E A D G B E)

Wind at my back, sun on my face. Let me stay, let me stay. Wondering what I will become today. Open the doors. Into the trees. Let me leave, let me leave. I know it’s right here but it’s hard to believe. I hold out my hands and it’s just out of reach.

 

Wind at my back, sun on my face. Pull me away, pull me away. Let me let the pieces fall into place. Open the doors. Open the windows. Hold me close, hold me close. I looked to the sky and I saw a ghost. I opened my eyes to what matters the most. Let me stay, let me stay. Let me let the pieces fall into place. Hold me close. Pull me away. Let me stay, let me stay. Let me stay.
