COME ON HOME

I remember ruby roses

bouquet of dandelions

driftwood

shaped by waves

And the way we’d sway

in the still of August

aligned with the moon

stars shown

over the water

and we’d listen

to everything

My view is clear tonight

I need us to happen again

been walkin these parts

but alone

I can’t hold you

alone

I can’t talk to you

I still hear

cracks of thunder

and that last gush of rain

drips from my face

My view is clear tonight

I need us to happen again

walking these parts

alone

I can’t hold you

alone

I can’t talk with you

I’ll leave this light on

so you can see that my

door is open

tonight

I’ll say I’m sorry

and kiss your wounds

My view is clear tonight

I need us to happen again

playing both parts

alone

I can’t hold you

alone I can’t talk to you

Come on home

Come on home
