COME ON HOME
Lambert Hendricks & Ross Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know that you can hear me talking
Though you're a million miles away
As if you were right beside me
Listening to what I had to say
But distance leaves me little choice
I rarely get to hear your voice
Let alone see your pretty face
So every day I'll sing your song and pretty soon it won't be long
'Til the day that you come home
So come home
Come home
It ain't no fun being all alone
Come home
Come home
I've had enough of being on my own
Baby come home
I've got to get myself together
I can't believe I'm being torn apart
But I can't see this getting better
After all, she's got my heart
It's too late to take it back
What's done is done and that's a fact
You've got to finish what you start
So every day I'll sing your song and pretty soon it won't be long
'Til the day that you come home
So come home
Come home
It ain't no fun being all alone
Come home
Come home
I've had enough of being on my own
Baby come home
I would wait for you forever
It's not too much for me to do
But the sooner you come back to me the better
That's why I'm asking you
To come home
Come home
It ain't no fun being all alone
Come home
Come home
I've had enough of being on my own
Baby come home
Baby come home
Come home
It ain't no fun being all alone
Come home
Come home
I've had enough of being on my own
Baby come home
Baby come home




Baby baby come home
Baby come home
