[Verse 1]

Come home, come home, come home, come home
[Verse 3]
Always goes against the grain, and I can try and deny it
Give a monkey half a brain, and still he's bound to fry it
Now the happening scene is dead, I used to want to be there too
[Pre-Chorus]
Every sky is blue, but not for me and you
[Chorus]
Come home, come home, come home, come home
Come home, come home, come home, come home
Come Home was written by Stefan Olsdal & Robert Schultzberg & Brian Molko.
Come Home was produced by Brad Wood.
