How did I get so far from home
The lies dissipating
Revealing I'm so alone
And I remember now how strong love can be
And I wonder how did I ever leave
Burn your fire on the altar
Leave a candle on the porch
I'm still too far away to see it
But I'm aching for it's warmth
And I'm so tired and cold and dark and lonesome
But still I hear your song inside
So sing it louder if you want me home tonight
Sing it loud now, cause I'm comin home tonight
This isn't the first time
I've wandered away from home before
Youd have every reason
To slam and dead-bolt the door
But I remember now how strong your love can be
And I wonder how you might welcome me
Burn your fire on the altar
Leave a candle on the porch
I'm still too far away to see it
But I'm aching for it's warmth
And I'm so tired and cold and dark and lonesome
But still I hear your song inside
So sing it louder if you want me home tonight
Sing it loud now, cause I'm comin home tonight
Into your arms, to my back yard
Where I used to play
How I miss the days...
So burn your fire on the altar
Leave a candle on the porch
I'm still too far away to see it
But I'm aching for it's warmth
And I'm so tired and cold and dark and lonesome
But still I hear your song inside
So sing it louder if you want me home tonight
Sing it loud now, cause I'm comin home tonight
I've come to my senses How did I get so far from home The lies dissipating Revealing I'm so alone And I remember now how strong love can be And I wonder how did I ever leave Burn your fire on the altar Leave a candle on the porch I'm still too far away to see it But I'm aching for it's warmth And I'm so tired and cold and dark and lonesome But still I hear your song inside So sing it louder if you want me home tonight Sing it loud now, cause I'm comin home tonight This isn't the first time I've wandered away from home before Youd have every reason To slam and dead-bolt the door But I remember now how strong your love can be And I wonder how you might welcome me Burn your fire on the altar Leave a candle on the porch I'm still too far away to see it But I'm aching for it's warmth And I'm so tired and cold and dark and lonesome But still I hear your song inside So sing it louder if you want me home tonight Sing it loud now, cause I'm comin home tonight Into your arms, to my back yard Where I used to play How I miss the days... So burn your fire on the altar Leave a candle on the porch I'm still too far away to see it But I'm aching for it's warmth And I'm so tired and cold and dark and lonesome But still I hear your song inside So sing it louder if you want me home tonight Sing it loud now, cause I'm comin home tonight Explain Request ×
