i asked you to come home, the place that i believed that you would always belong to, i didn't know that you found home in someone else, i didn't know that you found a better place, one where you no longer needed me in your life, i promised to leave the outside light on at all times, even when you swore that you wouldn't be coming back, but i was trying to remain optimistic, so the light will stay on and, maybe, one day, you'll find your way back to me
