Come Home
The Undercover Dream Lovers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why'd I try tearing apart this groove
When you only tried to show me what to do?
I wish that I could take you some place far real soon
Just like those others seem, seem to do

Home, when you gonna come back home?
Home, something I said put you in a throne
Home, when you gonna come back home?
Home weighs me down, just leave it alone

She forgot to tell him, "quit your job"
You could've lived your life like all those fools do
Dreamers know, I know you hide when he go
Trying to save my soul before I'm too old

Home, when you gonna come back home?
Home, something I said put you in a throne
Home, when you gonna come back home?
Home weighs me down, just leave it alone

There is no one coming home
Why'd you try and lock the door?
Don't you feel like giving in?
It's so much safer than before





Why'd I try tearing apart this groove
When you only tried to show me what to do?

Overall Meaning

In the song Come Home by The Undercover Dream Lovers, the artist is expressing a sense of regret for trying to change the natural flow of things. He wonders why he attempted to disrupt the groove that was already in place, especially when the other person was only trying to guide him. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for a relationship or a creative process, where he may have tried to take control and ended up hindering progress. The artist wishes he could take the other person away to a better place and experience something similar to what others seem to be experiencing.


The chorus of the song repeatedly asks the other person to come back home, suggesting that the artist may have caused them to leave or that they are simply absent. He acknowledges that something he said might have put the other person on a pedestal or made them feel superior in some way. The artist also recognizes that the idea of home can be burdensome and wants the other person to leave it alone. The lyrics suggest a desire for freedom and a willingness to let go of things that weigh us down.
