Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So happy to hold you near I'm so glad you made it
Could have taken too many moons but it happened soon
And yes you finally made it home to me
Ooooo
Home to me
OoooHome to me
So happy to see your face I'm so glad you made it
So happy to see you smile I'm so glad you made it
Could have taken far too long I wished it all along
That you would make it home to me
Ooooo
Home to me
Oooo
Home to me
Counting down the days I was
Wishing time would pass
Counting down the days I was
So glad it happened fast
Could have taken boats and planes
Taken cars and trains
But you finally made it
Could have taken far too long I wished it all along
That you would make it home to me
Oooooo
Home to me
Home to me
Oooo
Home to me
Oooo
Home to me
Home to me
Home to me
