Three months to this very day, she packed her things and drove away, leaving me like dust upon the floor. But late last night I got the call. She'd changed her mind after all. Oh, I'm hanging ribbons on the door. She's coming home.
I learned so many lonesome songs, and sorry tales of love gone wrong. Kinda lost the words to love gone right. But I'll whisper when she's next to me, make her blush and turn to me. Oh, I'm gonna sing with her tonight. She's coming home.
Oh, we used to fly, lift our feet and dance to the moon. But oh, after all this time, do we still know the steps to that tune?
It'll take much more than a kiss or two, or slipping notes inside her shoes, or a little glass of wine. 'Cause coming close when you've been apart is a tender, ancient, secret art. Oh, it takes its own sweet time. She's coming home.
She's coming home.
