Back to you
It always comes around
Back to you
I tried to forget you
I tried to stay away
But it's too late 

Over you
I'm never over
Over you
Something about you
It's just the way you move
The way you move me 

I'm so good at forgetting
And I quit every game I play
But forgive me, love
I can't turn and walk away 
This way

Back to you
It always comes around
Back to you
I walk with your shadow
I'm sleeping in my bed
With your silhouette 

should have smiled in that picture
If it's the last that I'll see of you
It's the least that you
Could not do 

Leave the light on,
I'll never give up on you,
Leave the light on,
For me too, for me too

Back to me
I know that it comes
Back to me
Doesn't it scare you
Your will is not as strong
As it used to be
