I was walkin down the Highway My thumb out in the air I'd argued with my father And thought he didn't care It was cold and I was angry As I cursed his name that day When a car pulled up beside me And I heard my father say
Come on home, Come on home I can't bear the thought of you Out here all alone It doesn't really matter Who was right or who was wrong Tears in his eyes he said please son Come on home
She heard me say it's over I can't do this anymore Then I packed up my suitcase And walked on out the door A few days later from a phone booth I called and thru my pain Said I know I don't deserve it But will you take me back again
Come on home, Come on home I can't bare the thought of you Out there all alone It doesn't really matter Who was right or who was wrong Don't say a word hang up the phone Come on home
My Pop's been gone a while now And my Nan she's grown old And I was with her when she spoke her final words She firmly held my hand Then she gently let it go As she left to be with Grandpa I swore I thought I heard
Come on home Come on home Can't bear the thought of you Out there on your own I've been waiting for you And your time had finally come Now you'll never have to be alone Come on home
