Lyrics

Coming Home

[Verse 1]

I'm kicking out. I'm coming back again

I'm kicking out. I'm coming home

I've been away, I've been away so long

So I'm coming home, I want to be myself again

[Chorus]

I tried to be what I ought to be

And I also tried domesticity

Been tortured by what I tried to be

I've got no place left to roam

[Post-Chorus]

He's coming home

Coming home

To worry bout nothing

Right back to you

Coming home

To nothing at all

[Verse 2]

I'm falling out, I'm coming back again

I'm coming out, I'm coming home

[Chorus]

I tried to be what I ought to be

And I also tried domesticity

Been tortured by what I tried to be

I've got no place left to roam

[Post-Chorus]

He's coming home

Coming home

To worry bout nothing

Right back to you

Coming home

To nothing at all

[Chorus]

He tried to be what he ought to be

And he also tried domesticity

Been tortured by what he tried to be

He's got no place left to roam

[Post-Chorus]

He's coming home

Coming home

To worry bout nothing

Right back to you

Coming home

To nothing at all
