Home Tonight
by: Chris RiceI've come to my senses
How did I get so far from home
The lies dissipating
Revealing I'm so alone
And I remember now how strong love can be
And I wonder how did I ever leave
Burn your fire on the altar
Leave a candle on the porch
I'm still too far away to see it
But I'm aching for its warmth
And I'm so tired and cold and dark and lonesome
But still I hear your song inside
So sing it louder if you want me home tonight
Sing it loud now 'cause I'm comin' home tonight
This isn't the first time
I've wandered away from home before
So you'd have every reason
To slam and dead-bolt the door
And I remember now, how strong your love can be
And I wonder how you might welcome me
Burn your fire on the altar
Leave a candle on the porch
I'm still too far away to see it
But I'm aching for its warmth
And I'm so tired and cold and dark and lonesome
But still I hear your song inside
So sing it louder if you want me home tonight
Sing it loud now 'cause I'm comin' home tonight
Into your arms, to my backyard
Where I used to play
How I miss the days
So burn your fire on the altar
Leave a candle on the porch
I'm still too far away to see it
But I'm aching for its warmth
I'm so tired and cold and dark and lonesome
But still I hear your song inside
So sing it louder if you want me home tonight
