about

'Come Home' is a tender story of loss and sentiment. Stripped right back to Vocals and Bass with no extra effects or production, the story is at the heart of the song.

lyrics

When she squeezed my hand
This too shall pass
It’s going to be okay, Sweet Pea
It’s gonna be okay

Silly duets on long car journeys,
Daring explorations to nowhere at all.
She’d give the cue,
I’d play along.

Come Home
Come Home
Come Home

Pictures left behind
The pretty things you acquired
Might show your taste and smile
But that’s not what you were

Fake words of false sympathies
Interrupt her words of truth
Words they never heard or understood
How dare they pretend they could

Come Home
Come Home
Come Home

Terrified of memories crumbling
And losing the essence of you
Desperate to keep these memories intact
Desperate to keep the image exact
Desperate to keep out the noise from the crowd
Why did you have to go?
Won’t you please Come Home?
Come Home,
Come Home,
Come Home
