You said it in a simple way
4 a.m. 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


I told myself "Don't get attached"
But in my mind, I play it back

Spinning faster than the plane that took you

Chorus :

And 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
I don't wanna need you this way

Come back (...be here)
Come back (...be here)


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'd known now
I never would have played so nonchalance


Taxi cabs and busy streets
That never bring you back to me

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

Chorus :

And 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
I don't wanna need you this way

Come back (...be here)
Come back (...be here)


This is falling in love in the cruelest way
This is falling for you and you are worlds away


New York...be here
But 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)

I don't wanna miss you like this

Come back...be here
Come back...be here
