"Comin' Home" is the second single from Dallas Green (aka City and Colour)'… Read Full Bio ↴"Comin' Home" is the second single from Dallas Green (aka City and Colour)'s album Sometimes, released in 2006. The music video is in black and white and shows Dallas playing in different rooms, with scenes showing a woman in (what appears to be) some of the same rooms, but never at the same time as Dallas. The song is referenced in a Cancer Bats music video where a group of lumberjacks (played by the band members, along with Alexisonfire vocalist George Pettit and producer Greg Below) badly sing the song at the end.

Comin' Home
City and Colour Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well, I've been down to Georgia
I've seen the streets in the West
I've driven down the 90
Hell I've seen America's best
I've been through the Rockies
I've seen Saskatoon
I've driven down the highway 1
Just hopin' that I'd see you soon

'Cause I'm comin' home,
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
Comin' home

I've never been to Alaska
But I can tell you this
I've been to Lincoln, Nebraska
And hell you know it ain't worth shit
I've been through Nova Scotia
Sydney to Halifax
I'll never take any pictures
'Cause I know I'll just be right back

'Cause I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
Comin' home

I've seen a palace in London
I've seen a castle in Wales
But I'd rather wake up beside you
And breathe that ol' familiar smell
I never thought you could leave me
I figured I was the one
But I understand your sadness
So I guess I should just hold my tongue

But I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
Comin' home

I know that we're takin' chances
You told me life was a risk
I just have one last question
Will it be my heart or will it be his?

'Cause I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
Comin' home
I'm comin' home
Comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home

I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to City and Colour's song "Comin' Home" convey the feelings of a man who has traveled far and wide, exploring different places and experiencing new things, yet he still longs to return to his loved one. The first verse describes his travels from Georgia to the West, through the Rockies and Saskatoon, and down Highway 1, all the while hoping to reunite with his sweetheart. The second verse continues his musings, with a particular focus on the places he has been to in Canada, such as Nova Scotia and Halifax. He recognizes that even though he has traveled to various exotic locations like London and Wales, nothing compares to being with his significant other, waking up next to her and being surrounded by her familiar scent.

The lyrics of "Comin' Home" depict a yearning for the comfort of home that is relatable to many individuals who have experienced being homesick. It also highlights the idea that no matter how far one travels, home would always be where the heart is. Additionally, the lyric "I know that we're takin' chances, you told me life was a risk, But I just have one last question, Will it be my heart or will it be his?" suggests that the singer may have struggled with infidelity and choices related to relationships. The song’s slow and melancholic rhythm adds to the emotional weight of the lyrics, making it a powerful composition that leaves a lasting impression.

I'm comin' home
I am returning home

We played this song at my brothers funeral during a slideshow. He loved City and Colour. He was taken too soon at 21, killed on his motorcycle. This song breaks my heart for him... all the places he planned to travel to and never got to. His life was taken in a city he hated and couldn't wait to leave. He's home now with God and hopefully has awesome views of all the places he never got to see in life. We miss you Matthew. I can't wait to see you again

I just got back here in Florida last week from two months of traveling and exploring the U.S. I've seen beautiful things and met some beautiful people and I was never sure if really ever wanted to come home. I stopped at a open mic coffee shop in Utah and heard a girl play this song with all her heart and soul. I decided right there that I needed to get back home, and that home might not be where my heart is, but its where I was born and raised, its where I learned and loved for 19 years of my life.

Every time I listen to this song, I'm remembered why I have a red maple leaf and the words "Comin' home" tattoed on me. Based in Germany, but Canadian at heart <3

Inretrospect. I'm German but I came last year to Canada and I find my NEW home !! I love it !!!!

I get the notion you’re military. If so, stay safe over there.

He said LINCOLN, Nebraska ain't worth shit. Not the whole damn state. People calm down!

But honeslty I don't care because I'm from Canada!

I don't even think he's talking shit about Lincoln. He could have said any city anywhere but being on the road ain't worth it if she ain't there.

@user-sv9zm8wr7f

he's saying the fact he's been places ain't worth shit, nothing to do with the city or state.

They say music can relate to the weather or time of year. This is definitely a winter song.

Melancholy self reflection at its finest. People that have moved away from home, or travel frequently can relate. That longing to go home, to be with the people you love. This song describes my heart, it is perfection. This artist is amazing, and almost all his songs are hauntingly beautiful. Especially Sleeping Sickness with Gord Downey 💔

Being homeless comes in different forms. This song explains why. The odds of me finding where home went are the same as learning how to find a new home.
