[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
Lovin can hurt
~#**************#~
Lovin can hurt sometimes
~#**************#~
But its the only thing that I know
~#**************#~
And when it gets hard
~#**************#~
You know it can get hard sometimes
~#**************#~
It is the only thing that makes us feel alive
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
We keep this love in a photograph
~#**************#~
We made these memories for ourselves
~#**************#~
Where our eyes are never closin
~#**************#~
Hearts are never broken
~#**************#~
And times forever frozen still
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
So you can keep me
~#**************#~
Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans
~#**************#~
Holdin me closer till our eyes meet
~#**************#~
You wont ever be alone
~#**************#~
Wait for me to come home
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Lovin can heal
~#**************#~
Lovin can mend your soul
~#**************#~
And its the only thing that I know, know
~#**************#~
I swear it will get easier
~#**************#~
Remember that with every piece of ya
~#**************#~
Mm, and its the only thing we take with us when we die
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
Mm, we keep this love in this photograph
~#**************#~
We made these memories for ourselves
~#**************#~
Where our eyes are never closin
~#**************#~
Hearts were never broken
~#**************#~
And times forever frozen still
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
So you can keep me
~#**************#~
Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans
~#**************#~
Holdin me closer till our eyes meet
~#**************#~
You wont ever be alone
~#**************#~
And if you hurt me
~#**************#~
Well, thats okay, baby, only words bleed
~#**************#~
Inside these pages, you just hold me
~#**************#~
And I wont ever let you go
~#**************#~
Wait for me to come home
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
Wait for me to come home
~#**************#~
Wait for me to come home
~#**************#~
Wait for me to come home
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Oh, you can fit me
~#**************#~
Inside that necklace you got when you were sixteen
~#**************#~
Next to your heartbeat, where I should be
~#**************#~
Keep it deep within your soul
~#**************#~
And if you hurt me
~#**************#~
Well, thats okay, baby, only words bleed
~#**************#~
Inside these pages, you just hold me
~#**************#~
And I wont ever let you go
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
When Im away, I will remember how you kissed me
~#**************#~
Under the lamppost back on Sixth Street
~#**************#~
Hearin you whisper through the phone
~#**************#~
“Wait for me to come home”
