lyrics

Your bags are sitting by the door
You're looking anywhere but me
I never begged for things before
But look at me, I'm on my knees

I'll turn the heating up
I'll say the things I never say
Just hang your coat back up
Just stay tonight, if not to stay

Put the bags down, put the bags down
Look at me now, put the bags down
Put the bags down, put the bags down
We built this house, don't tear it down
Put the bags down, put the bags down

I know I went quiet this year
I know I stopped saying your name
But I am standing right here
Screaming it out through the rain

I'll turn the heating up
I'll say the things I never say
Just hang your coat back up
Just stay tonight, if not to stay

Put the bags down, put the bags down
Look at me now, put the bags down
Put the bags down, put the bags down
We built this house, don't tear it down
Put the bags down, put the bags down

Take the car, take it all
Take the pictures off the wall
Leave your toothbrush in the cup
So I can tell myself you'll call

Put the bags down
Please, put the bags down
