Coming Home
Lexy & K. Paul Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
More than he had fame
He heard the whisper of angel voices in the rain
They said he'd be all right to heed the call again
He gave his regards to old Broadway his number out again
I watched as his penciled name faded on the pad
I said goodbye to the best friend I've never really had
Some men are made to move
And there's no country for this man
He's not coming home again
What weariness of mind it gives me just to watch
I want to hold him here I need my friend so much
It's great wide world I hope we stay in touch as the day arrives
How very strange it is the mindset he rejects
He'll write some letters that he'll probably forget to send
No better reason than there's no reasons to stay
No ties that bind could ever make this man a slave
I said there's no country for this man
Oh he's not coming home again
All of my life waiting
Stars in the sky like dreams for the taking
Closing my eyes and waiting
My lust for adventure is abating
I said there's no country for this man
Oh he's he's not coming home
He's not coming home again
I said there's oh there is no country for this man
Oh he's not coming home again
The song "Coming Home" by Lexy & K. Paul is a poignant reflection on the life of a wanderer who is not bound by any place, person, or thing. The lyrics highlight the dilemma of a man who has more than he needs, yet yearns for more – not money or fame, but a sense of freedom that he finds by moving constantly. He hears whispers of angelic voices reassuring him that he'll be okay if he follows his calling again. So, the man bids goodbye to his best friend, takes his number out again, and fades away into the vast world.
The singer's friend is not just any wanderer, but a nomad who belongs to no country. He's someone who rejects the mindset of the settled and wants to live on the edge. He'll write letters that he won't send, and he'll forget the people he meets as soon as he meets them. The singer's weariness of mind is palpable as he watches his friend move away, but he knows that he can't stop him. The man is not coming home again, and there's no country for him.
One interpretation of the song is that it's about the human need for belonging and the existential crisis that arises when we realize that we don't belong anywhere. The wanderer in the song is a symbol of all those who seek something beyond the material world – something that can only be found by going inward. The song invites us to reflect on what it means to be human, and what we're really seeking in life.

W latach 1999-2005 oni byli po prostu objawieniem. Każdy ich kolejny numer to był mega sztos. Szkoda że już dzisiaj nie nagrywają. Brakuje ich energii i ich humoru :)
