Soaking to our skins at the funeral, Seconds catching glimpses in the cold. A momentary love once lost reappears. If you stick around could I make amends, The architect of everything we lost. But every time we talk I shake and I shiver. How long to wait til we reach midnight? I’ve been waiting here just to set things right. How long to wait til we reach midnight? I’ve been waiting here. Yesterday’s mistakes that we buried there, Under the foundations of our home, A momentary love collapsed disappeared. I’m looking for the words in our neighbourhood, Im searching for the letters in the dark. But every time we talk shake and I shiver. Won’t you come home? Now and then, Maybe we could make amends, For the mess we’ve made so far. Now and then, If our backbones didn’t bend, But then that’s not who we are. Won’t you come home?

This is a song about regret, about our mistakes and waiting for that moment when we can make amends. We hope you like it.

Out now on Phwoar and Peace.

LYRICS

Soaking to our skins at the funeral,
Seconds catching glimpses in the cold.
A momentary love once lost reappears.
If you stick around could I make amends,
The architect of everything we lost.

But every time we talk I shake and I shiver.
How long to wait til we reach midnight?
I’ve been waiting here just to set things right.
How long to wait til we reach midnight?
I’ve been waiting years.

Yesterday’s mistakes that we buried there,
Under the foundations of our home,
A momentary love collapsed disappeared.

I’m looking for the words in our neighbourhood,
Im searching for the letters in the dark.
But every time we talk shake and I shiver.

Won’t you come home.

Now and then,
Maybe we could make amends,
For the mess we’ve made so far.
Now and then,
If our backbones didn’t bend,
But then that’s not who we are.

Won’t you come home.
