[Verse 1]
I was working on a plan to disappear completely
Gaslighting my friends into thinking I was busy
‘Cause if drinking was a day job, I’d be asking for more money
Hell, I never take a day off and I’m always selling something

[Pre-Chorus]
Headlights, your plates, 4CB3A
Didn’t know you drove American cars
Ray-Bans on your face, you’ve been driving all day
But you’re here and we’re so grateful you are

[Chorus]
‘Cause you’re gonna fix it, you’re gonna patch it up
Honey, we’re fragile, you’ve always been so tough
You know that I miss you, you always come running back
Whenever I ask, whenever I ask

[Verse 2]
And I hate to drag you back here
But I think he’s really lost it
He’s been sitting on the porch
Oh, ranting like a prophet
And I can’t stand the nights
Yeah, that dinner time silence
I cut the tension with a knife
And I pray you started driving

[Pre-Chorus]
Headlights, your plates, 4CB3A
Didn’t know you drove American cars
Ray-Bans on your face, you’ve been driving all day
But you’re here and we’re so grateful you are

[Chorus]
‘Cause you’re gonna fix it, you’re gonna patch it up
Honey, we’re fragile, you’ve always been so tough

You know that I miss you, you always come running back
Whenever I ask, whenever I ask

[Bridge]
Make him talk, make it stop, all I want is a dialogue
Oh, we’re drowning here, I’ve gotta stay for Mom
Make the house a home, you know how to talk
Well, you did back then, we would talk so much
And it’s fine we don’t, but can you come home?

[Chorus]
‘Cause you’re gonna fix it, you’re gonna patch it up
Honey, we’re fragile, you’ve always been so tough
You know that I miss you, you always come running back
Whenever I ask, whenever I ask

[Outro]
You know that I miss you, you always come running back
Whenever I ask, whenever I ask
Oh, whenever I ask
Whenever I ask, whenever I ask
