Coming Home (The Eclipse) Songtext

Coming Home (The Eclipse) Songtext
One October night I fell for you,
The earth blocked the sun′s light from reaching the moon,
There was no place to hide,
We watched it through your wide open window.
You could cover that moon with the top of your thumb,
You could save the whole world with the tip of your tongue.
Talk to me now, I'm a thousand miles from your window.
And nothing′s as sad as the radio is,
They me a bridge over troubled water.
Babe, I'm coming home.
This place that I've lived in since I was a kid,
Still so many things that I wished I did.
I′ve haunted all of these bars,
Seen all the busted hearts and broken windows.
With the wink of an eye and the letters you sent,
These days in Los Feliz have come to an end.
Pick one final rose, lock the doors and close up all the windows.
Packed up the car, the apartment is dark,
There′s nothing to stay for and the dogs are barking.
Freedom's not a word you keep in your pocket and I
Am not the girl that I always thought I was
There ever a time you ever felt this close to home.
I′m coming home now.
Driving through the dawn to get back to you,
The lights of Las Cruces come into view,
I'm making real good time,
They sparkle and they shine through my window.
Threw it all the wind, didn′t even watch it go,
Put on your dancin' shoes, oh baby don′t you know.
I'm coming home now.
I'm coming home now.
Babe, I′m coming home.
I′m coming home.
The earth blocked the sun′s light from reaching the moon,
There was no place to hide,
We watched it through your wide open window.
You could cover that moon with the top of your thumb,
You could save the whole world with the tip of your tongue.
Talk to me now, I'm a thousand miles from your window.
And nothing′s as sad as the radio is,
They me a bridge over troubled water.
Babe, I'm coming home.
This place that I've lived in since I was a kid,
Still so many things that I wished I did.
I′ve haunted all of these bars,
Seen all the busted hearts and broken windows.
With the wink of an eye and the letters you sent,
These days in Los Feliz have come to an end.
Pick one final rose, lock the doors and close up all the windows.
Packed up the car, the apartment is dark,
There′s nothing to stay for and the dogs are barking.
Freedom's not a word you keep in your pocket and I
Am not the girl that I always thought I was
There ever a time you ever felt this close to home.
I′m coming home now.
Driving through the dawn to get back to you,
The lights of Las Cruces come into view,
I'm making real good time,
They sparkle and they shine through my window.
Threw it all the wind, didn′t even watch it go,
Put on your dancin' shoes, oh baby don′t you know.
I'm coming home now.
I'm coming home now.
Babe, I′m coming home.
I′m coming home.
