Lyrics
I'm Comin' Home
I'm coming home, I'm leavin' today
I've been in these city lights too long
I've got to find some place to rest my weary head
Think of all the things I've done and said.
I'm on my way, I'll be there soon
To see the faces that I love
Lord, it seems so long ago, I felt like a man
City livin' makes you feel so small.
I'm coming home to heal my wounds
I feel like a boy with a broken heart
If I could turn back the time and start again
I'd be back home, not where I am.
I'm coming home (He's coming home once again)
And I've got one thing on my mind
I've got to be (He's got to be a man again)
And not a number in a line.
I'm coming home (He's coming home once again)
Well, there's some sounds I've got to tend
I've got to be (He's got to be a man again)
And not a number in a line.
