lyrics

You came and went so fast
A fever dream
A glimpse of the future gone in a flash

If I could make you stay
I'd still let you go
I'll wait for you
If you decide to come home

Don't leave
I know the Empire States calling your name
Calling your name
Don't leave
I know the Empire States calling your name
Calling your name

Is this what you're afraid of
Before you go
I'll try not to stand in your way

Theres nothing to say
Or that I could do
To make myself forget you
Our timing was off
And next thing I know you're gone
Come back to me

Don't leave
I know the Empire States calling your name
Calling your name
Don't leave
I know the Empire States calling your name
Calling your name
