Lyrics

(I Want To) Come Home

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

For so long I was out in the cold,

and I taught myself to believe every story I told.

It was fun hanging over the moon, heading into the sun,

but it's been too long.

Now I wanna come home.

Came so close to the edge of defeat.

But I made my way in the shade, keeping out of the heat.

It was fun shooting out of the stars, looking into the sun,

but it's been too long.

Now I wanna come home.

Home.

Where's there's nothing but sweet surrender,

to the memories from afar.

Home.

To the place where the truth lies waiting,

we remember who we are.

For too long I was out on my own.

Every day I spent trying to prove I could make it alone.

It was fun hanging over the moon, heading into the sun,

but it's been too long.

Now I wanna come home.

Home.

For so long I was out in the cold,

but I taught myself to believe every story I told.

It was fun hanging over the moon heading into the sun,

but it's been too long.

Now I wanna come home.

Yeah, it's been too long, now I want to come home.

Been too long, now I want to come home.
