[Verse 1]

Loving can hurt, loving can hurt sometimes

But it's the only thing that I know

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, never closin'

Hearts, never broken

And time's forever frozen, still

[Chorus]

So you can keep me

Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans

Holding me closer 'til our eyes meet

You won't ever be alone

Wait for me to come home

[Verse 2]

Loving can heal, loving can mend your soul

And it's the only thing that I know, know

I swear it will get easier, remember that with every piece of ya, mmm

And it's the only thing we take with us when we die

[Pre-Chorus]

We keep this love in a photograph

We made these memories for ourselves

Where our eyes, never closin'

Hearts, never broken

And time's forever frozen, still

[Chorus]

So you can keep me

Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans

Holding me closer 'til our eyes meet

You won't ever be alone

And if you hurt me, that's okay, baby

Only words bleed inside these pages, you just hold me

And I won't ever let you go

Wait for me to come home

[Outro]

Wait for me to come home

Wait for me to come home

Wait for me to come home
