Lyrics
13 Years today, but the first where something's missing
Only wish I pray, is that these days would fly by
You won't be erased, oh a picture holds the same old face
But I'll be listening, and looking out my window
Cause you left me all alone
Please come back
Home, home, where you were always someone to hold my hand before I lost my way back
Home, back home, where I needed you my friend
Well you said that you'd come back, but I'm still waiting
Not so long ago, you were walking in my shoes
But how am I supposed to know the world when you're the one I lose
I am out there now, and I think what would you do
Life is flyin' at me
But I wish that I could chose to have you
Home, home, where you were always someone to hold my hand before I lost my way back
Home, back home, where I needed you my friend
Well you said that you'd come back, but I'm still waiting
And you said that this is what i need to grow
and I understand your mind
and I'll love you just the same as when you're a million miles away
But if you could be so kind to come back
Home, home, where you were always someone to hold my hand before I lost my way back
Home, back home, where I needed you my friend
Well you said that you'd come back, but I'm still waiting
