Please Come Home to Me
Ron Pope Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm not sure why I can't sleep
All I know right now, is you're the thing I need
I send this prayer up to the same stars you see
Baby please, come home to me

We spend too much time apart
There aren't words to say whats happening in my heart
I live with blinders on, you're the only thing I see
Baby please, come home to me

I'm sure that it's hard for you
Though I wont make believe
We both get by and I'm hoping that someday soon
We will figure out a way
Just to spend a little time time and not say goodbye

Nothin' moves me anymore
I wait impatiently for footsteps by the door
Above all other things, you're what I believe
So baby please, come home to me
Baby please, come home to me




Baby please, come home to me
Baby please, come home to me

The singer is willing to wait patiently for their beloved to come back and is hopeful that someday soon they will find a way to spend a little more time together without having to say goodbye too soon. The final lines of the song underscore how the singer feels incomplete without their partner's return.

It may resonate with individuals who have experienced separation from their loved ones and may serve as a reminder of how essential their presence is in one's life.
