Carl Thomas Lyrics

One heart,
The love shared between two people

One life,
The time that is given to us to live

And a love that was meant to
The love shared between Carl and his wife that was destined to be

Be my one wife,
Carl's commitment to his wife as his partner for life

I really hope that we make it
Carl's desire to maintain a successful and fulfilling marriage

Two kids in two years
The plan to expand their family within a specific timeframe

and we ain't worried because the greatest time is yet to come
Their optimism for the future despite potential obstacles

And we live a life in love
The foundation of their relationship built on love

(Home) I'm on my way,
A declaration of returning to his place of origin

That's where I started from
The place where Carl's journey began

(Home) Been away for too long
The realization that Carl has been away from his family for an extended period of time

I wanna come back
Carl's longing to return home to his family

(Home) It's where the heart is
Emphasizing that home is where your loved ones are

(Home) Where all the people I love live
Further emphasizing that home is where his family resides

For three days and three nights, I've been away from my babies
Carl has been disconnected from his family for an extended period

I'm wondering, what you're doing now
Carl expresses his curiosity regarding his family during his absence

Cause everything that I'm doing, Is for love, And for life
Carl's motivation behind his actions while he is away from his family

So don't you worry because the greatest time is yet to come
A reminder to his family to remain optimistic for the future

And we live this life in love
Reinforcement of their commitment to a loving relationship

(Home) I'm on my way
Reiteration of the intention to return home

(Home) Been away for too long
Acknowledgment of the significant period of absence

Where all the people I love live
Highlighting the importance of loving relationships in his life

Through love comes changing people
The impact that love can have on an individual

Sometimes we need to understand and let it be
Carl recognizes that sometimes we must let others change and grow without interference

But throughout all these changes
Even with change, Carl's partner has remained a constant in his life

You put your pride inside for me when I'm in need
Carl's wife has put aside her pride to support him when he needed it

Oh I wanna come back home
Reiteration of the desire to return home

In my home, (home)
Referencing his family as his home

There's my wife
Recognizing the importance of his wife in his life

And my babies, yes they are (home)
Carl recognizes his children as a part of his home and family

Standing waiting for me, at home
Visualizing his family waiting for his return

Can't wait 'til I see you again (home)
Anticipation and eagerness to reunite with his family

This is my life
His family and love are the most important aspects of his life

I wanna come back home (home)
Final declaration of wanting to return to his family and home

Oh yeah (home)
An uplifting and positive affirmation of returning home

Said I wanna come back home (home)
Final reiteration of wanting to return home

Family, yeah, yeah
Underscoring the importance of family
