Lyrics

Come On Home (Extended Mix)

[Verse 1]

Baby come home, I miss the sound of the door

Your step on the stair's not there to wake me no more

And every day's like Christmas Day without you

It's cold and there's nothing to do

[Verse 2]

And it's mighty quiet here now that you're gone

And I've been behaving myself for too long

'Cause I don't like sleeping or painting the town on my own

So please

[Chorus]

Come on home

Come on home, yeah

Come on home

Baby come home

[Verse 3]

Baby, what's keeping you all this time?

You're wasting your days out there in the sunshine

And who can I turn to if you believe still

That England don't love you and she never will?

[Verse 4]

For it's mighty quiet here now that you're gone

And I've been behaving myself for too long

'Cause I don't like sleeping or watching TV on my own

So please

[Chorus]

Come on home

Come on home, yeah

Come on home

Baby come home, please

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]

Come on home

Come on home, yeah

Come on home

Baby come home, please

Come on home

Come on home, yeah yeah

Come on home

Baby come home

Come on home

Come on home

Come on home

Baby come home

Come on home

Come on, yeah yeah

Come on home

Come on home
