I’ve come to my senses   How did I get so far from home   The lies dissipating   Revealing I’m so alone   And I remember now how strong love can be   And I wonder how did I ever leave      Burn your fire on the altar   Leave a candle on the porch   I’m still too far away to see it   But I’m aching for its warmth   And I’m so tired and cold and dark and lonesome   But still I hear your song inside   So sing it louder if you want me home tonight   Sing it loud now, ‘cause I’m comin’ home tonight      This isn’t the first time   I’ve wandered away from home before   You’d have every reason   To slam and dead-bolt the door   But I remember now how strong your love can be   And I wonder how you might welcome me      Burn your fire on the altar   Leave a candle on the porch   I’m still too far away to see it   But I’m aching for its warmth   And I’m so tired and cold and dark and lonesome   But still I hear your song inside   So sing it louder if you want me home tonight   Sing it loud now, ‘cause I’m comin’ home tonight      Into your arms, to my back yard   Where I used to play   How I miss the days...      So burn your fire on the altar   Leave a candle on the porch   I’m still too far away to see it   But I’m aching for its warmth   And I’m so tired and cold and dark and lonesome   But still I hear your song inside   So sing it louder if you want me home tonight   Sing it loud now, ‘cause I’m comin’ home tonight
