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

Tryin' 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

Lookin' 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 on home

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
