[Verse 1]

Said it in a simple way

4 AM, the second day

How strange that I don't know you at all

Stumbled through the long goodbye

One last kiss, then catch your flight

Right when I was just about to fall

[Pre-Chorus 1]

I told myself, don't get attached

But in my mind, I play it back

Spinning faster than the plane that took you

[Chorus]

This is when the feeling sinks in

I don't wanna miss you like this

Come back, be here, come back, be here

I guess you're in New York today

And I don't wanna need you this way

Come back, be here, come back, be here

[Verse 2]

The delicate beginning rush

The feeling you can know so much

Without knowing anything at all

And now that I can put this down

If I had known what I know now

I never would've played so nonchalant

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Taxi cabs and busy streets

They never bring you back to me

I can't help but wish you took me with you

[Chorus 2]

This is when the feeling sinks in

I don't wanna miss you like this

Come back, be here, come back, be here

I guess you're in London today

And I don't wanna need you this way

Come back, be here, come back, be here

(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)

[Bridge]

This is falling in love in the cruelest way

This is falling for you when you are worlds away

In New York, be here

You're in London, and I break down

'Cause it's not fair that you're not around

[Chorus]

This is when the feeling sinks in

I don't wanna miss you like this

Come back, be here, come back, be here

I guess you're in New York today

And I don't wanna need you this way

Come back, be here, come back, be here
