Come Home

Restless, Im alone
Wishing you were here
Baby just come home
1700 miles away from my arms
But only a breath away from my heart
The sun is darkened by the clouds
Only your smile could bring it out
It brings out the happiness in me
The hope that others refuse to see
I just wish you'd come home to me
Childhood taught us lessons
It showed you what you did wrong
But we're not children
No we're not children anymore
So open up your eyes
Wake from your dreams tonight
Tell me that you love me
That I wont be alone
That soon you'll be here
Baby tell me that your coming home

this one adds more light to the second one you wrote that I read first. Both are splendid.

I like how you put accountability on childhood - a terrible hunger isn't it - at least you've got the heart to know you need - 1700 miles, I can run longer than that - a beautiful sensativity Jay -
