Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It seem a long time i've waiting for you
Since you've not come home.
And there's so much to say girl i'm missing you.
From ever since you walked thru the door
The lyrics of Kevin Isaacs’ song “Come on home” detail the singer’s longing and await for the return of his love interest, who has been absent for quite some time. His anxiety is clear through the repetition of phrases like “since you’ve not come home” and “there’s so much to say girl I’m missing you”. We can also see evidence of a desire to reconcile or make amends with his love interest, as he mentions that there is “so much to say”. From this, we can infer that the separation may have been difficult or tumultuous. By saying “ever since you walked thru the door”, Isaacs suggests that the separation occurred in the home, perhaps indicating that it was due to a domestic dispute.
Overall, the lyrics evoke a palpable sense of longing and desire for a reunion that the singer fears may never come. It is upbeat and calming while telling the story of a partner's dark and lonely hours while waiting for the other. The song highlights the importance of communication in relationships and the pain that comes from not being with someone you love.
