Verse 1

I said I told you everything

 But I left something out

 Underneath the stairwell

And I'm under lock and key

 But you can probably tell

 A powder keg in a prison cell

Pre-chorus

I want to return

 But all you would do is turn to leave

If I can find my way home

Will you take hold of me

Chorus

 I been gone so long

 I can barely say

 All I know is now I want to stay

 Has it been too long

 Since I went away

 'Cause I'm trying to find the words

 But I can barely say

-- -- -- -

Verse 2

I used to be the son

 Waiting silently

 But they barely noticed me

And I been talking in my sleep

 If anybody sees

 They'll turn and they'll run from me

Pre-chorus

I want to return

 But all you would do is turn to leave

If I can find my way home

Will you take hold of me

Chorus

 I been gone so long

 I can barely say

 All I know is now I want to stay

 Has it been too long

 Since I went away

 'Cause I'm trying to find the words

 But I can barely say

Bridge

I wanted to run

 I wanted to love and be loved in return

 But will I ever get back

Do I know too much to return

-- -- -- -

Chorus

 I been gone so long

 I can barely say

 All I know is now I want to stay

 Has it been too long

 Since I went away

 'Cause I'm trying to find the words

 But I can barely say
