Coming Home
He feels her smile when he's afraid, / It reminds him of his life before she went away / He might crumble, but he'll not fall, / If the memory of his only love can stay that way / Still has his dreams, they will get him through, / Till his life means something more than to lose / 'Cause he's still wondering when she's coming home / And he'll tell her what he's done today / He doesn't want to lose this memory / Of the only part of life to him that's safe. / Still hears her key, turn in the door, / disappointment running through him, she's not coming anymore / He sees his friends, turns on that charm, / But his heart's not in it, doesn't want to move on / He has his dreams they will get him through, / Till his life means something more than to lose / 'Cause he's still wondering when she's coming home / And he'll tell her what he's done today / He doesn't want to lose this memory/ Of the only part of life to him that's safe. / He's missing out on life, / Because he doesn't know how long to keep her in his mind / His life's been hers too long and now he's picking up the / pieces, just to stay alive / And he's still wondering when she's coming home / And he'll tell her what he's done today / He doesn't want to lose this memory / Of the only part of life to him that's safe.
