Please Come Home
Rigby Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I tell the world
I'm doing better now
Tell all the girls
They could all come over now
I tell my friends
That i am fine without her
But it's Christmas Night and i'm all alone
No one night stand
Slept on the couch again
A ladies man
But not with you inside my head
Stood her up
'Cause the tears were running down my face
Called her up and I cancelled my date
Too scared for a new and female embrace

Would you please come home
And turn up all the lights
Would you please come home
Return and make things right
This fool knows what he's missing since you've been gone
(it's Christmas Night) would you please come home

I serenade, it snowed a lot today
I dream away, i swear i hear those violins play
Been caught up by the moviescript inside my head
This ain't Hollywood, it's Amsterdam my friends
And maybe they'll divorce after The End

I'd even buy you a time machine
I. If I could go back
I'd change everything about me




I swear i'll buy you the biggest tree
I sell my x-box, get a job and be all i can be

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Rigby’s song “Please Come Home” describe a man who is trying his best to move on from a failed relationship. He tells everyone how well he is doing without his ex-girlfriend and invites “all the girls” to visit him. However, the reality is that he is still heartbroken and alone on Christmas night. He talks about sleeping on the couch and canceling a date because he couldn’t stop crying. Despite being afraid of a new relationship, he longs for his ex-girlfriend to return and make things right. He admits to missing her and wishes to change everything about himself to make it work out.


The song captures the essence of the Christmas blues, which is a common feeling during the holiday season for people who are alone or have lost a loved one. It paints a vivid picture of the singer’s loneliness and his attempts to cope with it. In contrast to the festive spirit, the song’s melancholic tune and lyrics emphasize the feelings of isolation and loss.


One can also interpret the lyrics as a plea for redemption. The singer wishes to take back his mistakes and regrets the things he has done or said that led to his breakup. He wants to make amends and promises to make changes if given a chance. The song, therefore, shows how love can make a person vulnerable, and how missing someone you love can lead to a profound sense of sorrow.


Line by Line Meaning

I tell the world
I'm making a public announcement


I'm doing better now
I'm trying to convince everyone that I'm over you


Tell all the girls
I invite every woman over to my place


They could all come over now
I'm ready to move on


I tell my friends
I'm trying to convince my friends that I'm fine


That I am fine without her
I want to appear as if I don't need you


But it's Christmas Night and i'm all alone
I'm masking my loneliness


No one night stand
I won't fill the void with meaningless sex


Slept on the couch again
I can't sleep without you beside me


A ladies' man
I've been with other women but none like you


But not with you inside my head
I can't get you off my thoughts


Stood her up
I cancelled a date


'Cause the tears were running down my face
I'm still heartbroken


Called her up and I cancelled my date
I don't want to hurt anyone else


Too scared for a new and female embrace
I'm afraid to get hurt again


Would you please come home
I need you to return


And turn up all the lights
I want to see your face clearly


Return and make things right
I want us to fix our problems


This fool knows what he's missing since you've been gone
I realize my mistakes


(it's Christmas Night) would you please come home
I'm lonely during the holiday season


I serenade, it snowed a lot today
I'm trying to win you back with music


I dream away, i swear i hear those violins play
I long for our past love


Been caught up by the movie script inside my head
I'm living in a fantasy world


This ain't Hollywood, it's Amsterdam my friends
Real life isn't like in the movies


And maybe they'll divorce after The End
Happy endings don't always happen


I'd even buy you a time machine
I would do anything to make it right


I. If I could go back
I want to change the past


I'd change everything about me
I know it's my fault


I swear i'll buy you the biggest tree
I want to make it up to you


I sell my x-box, get a job and be all i can be
I'm willing to make sacrifices for you
