When You Come Home

Now the days crawl by And every night I die Since you've been gone The dark still brings the dawn But, baby, what do I care But when you walk in that door It won't be like before No you, no me Just us eternally This, babe, I swear When you come home You will find a different man 'Cause I learned a thing or two Trying to live here without you When you come home I'll give everything I can We'll go back where we began When you come home Now a woman can be so strong And a man can be so wrong So here I stand A tiny sea of teardrops in each hand Praying you'll return When you come home I will hand my life to you 'Cause I see the bad I've done Looking out for number one When you come home I'll make every pleasure new And you'll know a love so true When you come home I can see our life so crystal clear But I lose my mind when you're not here And the clock's so loud and the sheets are cold And my head's on fire and my heart's on hold And the day's too bright and the night's so dark And my insides ache like a hungry shark And there ain't no dope that can kill this pain 'Cause I smell your skin in the pouring rain Come home, baby I've done time for my offense You can be back home today 'Cause my love will light your way Come home, baby We will live in present tense And my world will all make sense When you come home Let forgiveness warm the night And I'll trade in all my lies For the soul behind your eyes When you come home When you come home If you come home
