Ellen and the Escapades Follow

If all I had to do was wait, then I've out stayed my welcome
and I've seen so many people pass by me with some place to go
So I'll sit and I'll watch and I'll wait and I will tremble
in the breeze like the leaves clinging tightly to this aging oak tree

Last night I felt lonely I miss spending our nights together
and in truth you're a stranger but oh, don't you know me so well
And I know that I'm making excuses here, not reasons
and I've done you wrong and I'm sorry, I hope you can tell

And I'm finding it hard to explain my thinking
and I'm not sure how to deal with the wreckage just yet

But I said I am coming back home to you
please my love, just keep me in mind
don't you forget I'm still thinking about you
this heart of mine it aches more than it's supposed to now

So I'm laid with the heaviest of hearts, pounding and restless
and this nagging thought in my mind that won't give it a rest
And this tight knit sleeve it'll slowly begin to unravel
as I'm caught up on something that somebody here had said

But I said I am coming back home to you
please my love, just keep me in mind
don't you forget I'm still thinking about you
this heart of mine it aches more than it's supposed to now

I said I am coming back home to you
please my love, just keep me in mind won't you
