Woncha Come On Home
Joan Armatrading · Gold [2005]
Every light is on
But all the rooms are empty except one
Oh, baby don't stay too late
You know I hate to be alone and I'm alone
Baby, woncha come on home?
There's a madman standing on the corner
And he keeps on looking at my window
Oh babe, woncha come on home, home?
Every key is turned
And every window's bolted from inside
Oh babe, you know I get so scared
You know I couldn't live alone it's just been confirmed
Baby, woncha come on home?
Standing on the corner is a madman
Looking at my window
Oh babe, woncha come on home, home?
Baby, woncha come on home?
There's a man standing on the corner
Now a shadow moves across the window
Oh babe, woncha come on home, home?
Every light is on
But all the rooms are empty except one
Oh, baby don't stay too late
You know I hate to be alone and I'm alone
Baby, woncha come on home?
Baby, woncha come on home?
But all the rooms are empty except one
Oh, baby don't stay too late
You know I hate to be alone and I'm alone
Baby, woncha come on home?
There's a madman standing on the corner
And he keeps on looking at my window
Oh babe, woncha come on home, home?
Every key is turned
And every window's bolted from inside
Oh babe, you know I get so scared
You know I couldn't live alone it's just been confirmed
Baby, woncha come on home?
Standing on the corner is a madman
Looking at my window
Oh babe, woncha come on home, home?
Baby, woncha come on home?
There's a man standing on the corner
Now a shadow moves across the window
Oh babe, woncha come on home, home?
Every light is on
But all the rooms are empty except one
Oh, baby don't stay too late
You know I hate to be alone and I'm alone
Baby, woncha come on home?
Baby, woncha come on home?
