The Gospel Youth – Bloodlines//Love Stopped Me Coming Home lyrics

[Verse 1]
I stood outside your house for hours last night,
I didn't make it past the porch lights,
Couldn't bear to see you crying.
I saw the colour of the front door's changed from blue,
I guess you didn't want reminders
Of the pain I put you through.

[Chorus]
Well I promise you one day,
I will come back home and see you.
I know that all your lonely days,
They will not just disappear.
Your disappointment in my choice,
I can't breathe without a voice.
I just hope that in due time you can forgive me,
Love stopped me coming home.

[Verse 2]
I found a photograph of the day we had in Brighton,
I sometimes wonder where the time went,
It's been months since I went back.
And I'm sorry, please never think that I don't love you,
It's fucking hard to walk away,
I guess I'm scared to learn of all the ways you've changed.

[Chorus]
Well I promise you one day,
I will come back home and see you.
I know that all your lonely days,
They will not just disappear.
Your disappointment in my choice,
I can't breathe without a voice.
I just hope that in due time you can forgive me,
Love stopped me coming home.

[Bridge]
I know if I don't come back soon,
That last goodbye may last forever,
And I don't think I can handle all that weight.
I know if I don't come back soon,
That last goodbye may last forever,
And I don't think I can handle all that weight.
I am trying to get better all the time,
I am trying to get better all the time,
I am trying to get better all the time.

[Outro]
I promise you one day,
I will come back home and see you.
I know that all your lonely days,
They will not just disappear.
Your disappointment in my choice,
I can't breathe without a voice.
I just hope that in due time you can forgive me,
Love stopped me coming home.
