Home Sweet Home
Paul Brown Featuring Richard Elliot Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come down off your throne and leave your body alone, somebody must change
You are the reason I've been waiting so long, somebody holds the key
Well, I'm near the end and I just ain't got the time
And I'm wasted and I can't find my way home

Come down on your own and leave your body alone, somebody must change
You are the reason I've been waiting all these years, somebody holds the key
Well, I'm near the end and I just ain't got the time
And I'm wasted and I can't find my way home

Come down off your throne and leave your body alone, somebody must change
Let go of your ego and stop obsessing over your physical form, there needs to be a transformation


You are the reason I've been waiting so long, somebody holds the key
I have been waiting for something because of you, but someone else holds the solution


Well, I'm near the end and I just ain't got the time
I am running out of time and don't have the luxury to waste it


And I'm wasted and I can't find my way home
I am lost and unable to return to where I belong
