COME ON HOME
Mel & Carl Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You'd be so nice to come home to
You'd be so nice by the fire
While the breeze on high, sang a lullaby
You'd be all my heart could desire

Under stars chilled by the winter
Under an August moon shining above
You'd be so nice, you'd be paradise

To come home to and love

Under stars chilled by the winter
Under an August moon burning above

You'd be so nice, you'd be paradise
To come home to and love

You'd be so nice to come home to
Returning to you would bring me immense joy and comfort

You'd be so nice by the fire
Being with you in front of the fire would be warm and inviting

While the breeze on high, sang a lullaby
The calming sound of the wind would add to our peaceful setting
