Chorus:
C majorC
Being back here makes me hot in the face
Hot blood in my pulsing veins

Couldn't look away even if I wanted

Try to walk away but I come back to the start

When I went away, it was the only option

Couldn't trust myself to proceed with caution
A minorAm
The most that I could give to you is nothing at all
FF
The best that I could offer was to miss your calls
