I'll Be Coming Home Soon

Here I am another day's gone by
The sun's asleep and the moon is shy
My hands are cold and my mouth is dry
And I'm wide awake
Though I could've saved the world today
I only tried to get some radio play
There's only so much the several J's will take

So long to the experts expectation
Farewell to the A4 education
Goodbye to the good lies that are hiding in my room
And I'll be coming home soon

Find myself staring at the stars
Dreaming of expensive cars
Singing songs in empty bars
That I wrote for you
So how are things? Its been too long
I still remember how to play that song
I'll often strum it just to have something to do

Let go of the long term complication
Hold on to the hopeful destination
Sit tight in the riptide that is reaching for the moon
And I'll be coming home soon

And when I think I've felt in enough
I'll pretend that it's okay and let it be
They say that home is where the heart is
But my heart is lost at sea

I'm feeling older but not so wise
It's getting colder as the fire dies
I never told her of her pretty eyes
They're crystal blue
Pour myself a second glass of gin
Give the 45's another spin
Come to realise that I'm homesick without you

Song long to the corporates corporation
Farewell to finance situation
Slow down, to the Motown on a Sunday afternoon
And I'll be coming home soon
I won't be so alone soon
I'll be coming home soon
