When Will You Come Home?

Ryan Adams · Cold Roses [2005]

[1,2,3,4]



Sleepin' in a way, she eases my mind

And lays me 'cross the bed 'til I close my eyes

Stirs me in the morning 'til I can never be satisfied

Well I leave Carolina every night in my dreams

Like the girls that try to love me that I only leave

Rock me like a baby doll and hold me to your chest

But I'm always moving too fast

If I could find my way back home

Where would I go?

And everything about me I used to be

Shivers in the sheets in the blankets of snow

Lost out in the woods; were you lookin' for me?

When, when will you come back home?

When, when will you come back home?

No one leaves the lights on

In a house where nobody lives

Loaded like the boxes up in the bedroom

I'm comin' off the hinges like a door

Your shadow's dancing up in the window

We're not who we are but who we were

And I'm not gonna break but if I do

I'm gonna shatter like the glass that turns your heart in to

Broken like the windows of the house that I used to live

And if I could find my way back home

Where would I go?

And everything about me I used to be

Shivers in the sheets in the blankets of snow

Lost out in the woods lookin' for you

When, when will you come back home?

When, when will you come back home?

When, when will you come back home?

When, when will you come back home?

No one leaves the lights on

In a house where nobody lives anymore

Everything about me in life is already gone

Everything with me in her is gone

When will you come back home?

When, when will you come back home?

When, when will you come back home?

When, when will you come back home?
