Lyrics
Coming Home
Trying to find
My way back home ya
Hoping to find you there alone
Baby
Are the children sleeping
In their beds now?
Got visions of you
Dancing in my head ya...
CHORUS
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Suffering through
This taxi ride ya
Next stop is
The friendly skies hey
I'll work my way through
This customs check now
Soon I'll plant kisses
On your neck baby
CHORUS
At the end of the road
I'll turn your drive babe
Sneak upstairs
Lay down by your side ya
Seeing you
It wakes up all my hunger
But I can't bear
To disturb your slumber
CHORUS
