By the light of the moon, I'm coming home Howling all the way - I'm coming home On my hands and knees - I'm coming home I know when I've been beat - yeah, I'm coming home By the skin of my teeth - I'm coming home By the soul of my feet - you know I'm coming home
I'm coming home, but I ain't coming for you
I'm riding out the wind - I'm coming home It don't matter where I've been - I'm coming home Crawling on all fours - I'm coming home Turning brick walls into doors - I'm coming home
I've got the taste in my mouth I've got a hunger in my gut My skin has turned to leather My hair is banded rope My knees have buckled beneath the weight of doubt But now I miss things that I have done without
I'm coming home, but I ain't coming for you I'm coming home, ain't nothing you can do about it Ain't nothing you can do about it
Don't leave the light on Don't need you anymore, my old friend Put a cross above the door Lay up the boards I'm on my way I'm coming home
