[Verse 1]
I sat alone to wait for you
You never told me you were leaving
I wait another hour or two
Before I came around to see that

[Pre-Chorus 1]
You yell when you get bored
You go away when you get mad
You slam the door to make a scene
Yeah you're always coming back

[Chorus]
Don't you come running back, come running back to me
Come running back when you wanna say sorry
Don't you come running back, come running back to me
Come running back 'cause you're lonely and you want me
'Cause you're lonely and you want me

[Verse 2]
I called your phone a time or two
The short ring told me you had seen it
When you had said I was the one
Did you ever really mean it?

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You cry when you're confused
You tell your friends when you get mad
You call your mom to make a scene
Yeah you're always coming back
[Chorus]
Don't you come running back, come running back to me
Come running back when you wanna say sorry
Don't you come running back, come running back to me
Come running back 'cause you're lonely and you want me
'Cause you're lonely and you want me

[Bridge]
Now I've left with stuff you own
Now you're sad that you're all alone
I remember all our plans
Us in love and holding hands
I would usually call you then
Say, "I'm sorry, let's try again"
But instead I lock the door
I've seen it all before

[Outro]
Don't you come running back, come running back to me
Come running back when you wanna say sorry
Don't you come running back, come running back to me
Come running back 'cause you're lonely and you want me

Don't you come running back, come running back to me
Come running back when you wanna say sorry
Don't you come running back, come running back to me
Come running back 'cause you're lonely and you want me
Don't you come running back, come running back to me
Come running back 'cause you're not really sorry
