Lyrics
I never really know who you are
I am uncertain about your true identity
You could be a ghost for all I know
You could be elusive or distant like a ghost
Whenever you're home
When you are present at home
Picking up pieces of my heart
Gathering the fragments of my broken heart
Like leaves that have fallen on our garden path
Collecting memories and experiences from our shared journey
Who's gonna fly your plane
Who will pilot your plane
When you need to make your getaway?
During the times you need to escape or leave
But I'm still holding on
Despite uncertainties, I am still holding onto something
Calling you back home, calling you back
Calling you to return home, urging you back
I never really know who you are
I am uncertain about your true identity (repeated)
You could be a ghost for all I know
You could be elusive or distant like a ghost (repeated)
Whenever you're home
When you are present at home (repeated)
Used to be closer than my skin
We used to be extremely close
Turned a blind eye to the odds and I bet everything
I ignored the risks and bet everything
Who's gonna fly your plane
Who will pilot your plane
When you need to make your getaway?
During the times you need to escape or leave
But I'm still holding on
Despite uncertainties, I am still holding onto something
Calling you back home, calling you back
Calling you to return home, urging you back
You hear my flesh and my bones
Your essence, both physical and emotional, is reaching out
They're calling you back home, they're calling you back
They are calling you to return home, both my flesh and bones
This house lives in silence for most of the year
This house is often quiet, lacking your presence for most of the year
You're a million miles away but you couldn't be nearer
You are physically far away but emotionally close
Please break my heart just so I can feel
Please cause me emotional pain so I can feel something
At least I would have something that I could believe
Having genuine emotions would be preferable to numbness
But I'm still holding on
Despite uncertainties, I am still holding onto something
Calling you back home, calling you back
Calling you to return home, urging you back
You hear my flesh and my bones
Your essence, both physical and emotional, is reaching out
They're calling you back home, they're calling you back
They are calling you to return home, both my flesh and bones
