Well, hello, world Hope you're listening Forgive me if I'm young For speaking out of turn There's someone I've been missing I think that they could be The better half of me They're in the wrong place Tryin' to make it right But I'm tired of justifying So I say to you Come home, come home 'Cause I've been waiting for you For so long, for so long And right now there's a war between the vanities But all I see is you and me And the fight for you is all I've ever known So come home Ooh I get lost in the beauty Of everything I see The world ain't half as bad As they paint it to be If all the sons, all the daughters Stopped to take it in Well, hopefully, the hate subsides And the love can begin It might start now, yeah Well, maybe I'm just dreaming out loud Well, until then Come home, come home 'Cause I've been waiting for you For so long, for so long And right now there's a war between the vanities But all I see is you and me And the fight for you is all I've ever known, ever known So come home Ooh Everything I can't be Is everything you should be And that's why I need you here Everything I can't be Is everything you should be And that's why I need you here So hear this now Come home, come home 'Cause I've been waiting for you For so long, for so long And right now, there's a war between the vanities But all I see is you and me And the fight for you is all I've ever known, ever known So come home, come home Ooh

Stuck between the do or die, I feel emaciated Hard to breathe I try and try, I'll get asphyxiated Swinging from the tallest height, with nothing left to hold on, to Every sky is blue, but not for me and you Come home Come home Come home Come home Glass and petrol, vodka, gin, it feels like breathing methane Throw yourself from skin to skin, and still it doesn't dull the pain Vanish like a lipstick trace, it always blows me away Every cloud is grey, with dreams of yesterday Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home Always goes against the grain and I can try and deny it Give a monkey half a brain, and still he's bound to fry it Now the happening scene is dead, I used to want to be there, too Every sky is blue, but not for me and you Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home Come home

I come home And I find myself alone again And I need your voice on the phone To remind me of how brave I am Cause I get scared at night and I lose my heart I see faces in my window, I hear noises in the dark I lose my mind between the front door and the car But you cannot run from demons They know just where you are And I buy draperies to keep me in Cause I fear my heart is beating on the outside of my skin And anyone who wants to can look on in They will find me in my solitude Yeah, sometimes in my sin Cause these walls ain? t thick enough to keep out the sound Of the ghosts who dance outside my door They feed upon the ground They stepped on from the heavens They reach up from the mud Their eyes are empty They are looking for blood There was a lady, she lived next door She ain? t living anywhere anymore No, she died slowly and full of pain And I never saw her face and I never learned her name But she visits me on some days She asks me where I come from She asks me why I stay But she knows that I get scared at night and I lose my heart See faces in my window, I hear noises in the dark And I lose my mind between the front door and the car But you cannot run from demons They know just where you are They know just where you are And I come home And I need your voice on the phone I need your voice on the phone I need your voice on the phone I need your voice

Each night under this moon I sit alone Hoping you'll get home soon Darling, come home soon Darling, come home soon I sit in my room each and every night Wondering how you are Are you feeling all alone For I miss you so I'm writing you So sad and blue For I love you so So far away Wish you were here And I'll never let you go Be mine under this moon I sit in my room Please, hoping you'll get home soon Darling, come home soon Darling, come home soon (la, la, la, la) Darling, come home soon
