Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home
Mm

Maybe surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone,
I just want to go home
Oh I miss you, you know
And I've been keeping all the letters
That I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
I'm fine baby how are you
Well I would send them but, I know that it's it's just not enough
The words were cold and flat
And you deserve more, than that

Another airplane
Another sunny place
I'm lucky, I know
But I wanna go home
I've got to go home
Let me go home
I'm just too far
From where you are
I gotta come home
Let me come home
I've had my run
Baby I'm done
I wanna come home

And I feel just like, I'm living
Someone else's life
It's like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not come along with me
'Cause this was not your dream
But you always believed in me

Another winter day, has come and gone away
In either Paris and Rome
And I wanna go home
I miss you, you know
Let me go home
I've had my run
Baby I'm done
I wanna go home
Let me go home

It'll all be alright




I'll be home tonight
I'm coming back home
