The Fanboys - Coming Home lyrics

rate me

She grew tired of the quiet life, wanted to branch out a bitStarted to talk about the big city west, try her luck out thereWanted her name in the bright lights, knew she'd become a starThis dream would become reality, at least in her heartI called her up before she left, asked her not to goWhen I knew she wouldn't change her mind, said"when are you coming home, yeah when are you coming home"She was gone away, left me lost without my girl, I didn't want to lose herTo this other worldGot a card from her some weeks later, wrote that all was going wellWould be just a matter of time, before her first breakShe had to live in just one room, but she'd soon be out of thereFame was calling out to her, she said"I won't be coming home, yeah I won't be coming home"But as the bright lights faded, and her dreams fell apart, it's not how shePlanned it at the startGot a call from her just the other day, she was crying as she spokeHer voice was shaking, all messed up, told me she was brokeSaid how things hadn't worked out, she missed me and wanted to leaveGonna buy a ticket on her credit card, said"I am coming home, yeah I am coming home"She would be home, in just 24 hours, and I will hold her againTold her I'd be there, to pick her up from her busGot the details off of her and I said, "I'm so glad you're coming home, yeah I'm so glad you're coming home, You're finally coming home, so glad you made it home
