Lyrics
COME BACK HOME
Words and Music by James Keith Norman
VERSE #1:
We woke late today, just like all week.
Same old “so much to do, little time to speak.”
Then a quick kiss in the hall, and we raced away
to our separate days.
VERSE #2:
Now I’m stuck in a bumper-to-bumper drive-thru.
And honestly, all I can think about is me and you.
Your perfume, it lingers from that little kiss in the hall
so I just had to call,
suggest to you
we…
CHORUS:
Come back, baby.
Come back home.
We’ll lock the doors, spend the day alone
and celebrate the best love we have known.
Baby, come back home.
VERSE #3:
We have appointments we should keep
There’s the dentist for you. A tune-up for this Jeep.
Then customers to deal with all the rest of the day,
but c’mon, what do you say?
VERSE #4:
’Cause we never have the time or so it seems
just to shut out the world a while and share our dreams.
And I gotta tell you I think that it is almost a sin
how long we ain’t been skin to skin
under the sheets.
So…
CHORUS:
Come back, baby.
Come back home.
We’ll lock the doors, spend the day alone
and celebrate the best love we have known.
Baby, come back home.
BRIDGE:
I hear you sigh. You don’t say a word,
but your meaning is clear. It’s like I already heard
you agree you’ll…
CHORUS:
Come back, baby.
Come back home.
We’ll lock the doors, spend the day alone
and celebrate the best love we have known.
Baby, come back home.
Baby, come back,
Baby, come back…home.
