So this is how the story went

I met someone by accident

you barried them away
[Refrão]
Dm G
And I wish I could lay down beside you

you'll disappear one day

And put a kiss on top of your head

I watched you wave

I watched you wave

Neon lights and waiting papers

That I call home

I call it home

I'm going back to where I started

The morning rain

The morning rain

Is calling me home

Is calling me home
