Boys Back Home
The Questions Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Somebody told you that I've been sleeping around
Because of this lie, you let somebody come along and tears us down
So you've found yourself a brand new lover but you didn't let me know
I found out and started going crazy so I had to let you go.

Chorus

I can't stand this living alone
Don't want to come back cause I did you wrong
(not sure)
If your what love sent in for the first storm
Darling I love you let me come back home.

I can't stand this living alone
Don't want to come back home cause I did you wrong
(not sure)
If your what love sent in for the first storm
Darling I love you let me come back home.

Verse two

Baby I'm the fool but darling you let me down.
I know I was wrong for not trusting you, but lady now I'm the clown
But wasn't I there when your whole damn family turned their back on you
I was nothing on the day I found you and I'm even less not that I don't have you.

Chorus

Bridge

Why didn't you come and talk to me we could have worked things out
After all the things we've been through
Tell me what I'm I suppose to do.
(now that you have gone away)i never gave you a reason to doubt it
All I know is I can't live without it




(no,no,no, won't you come home)
(I love you soooooooooooo)
