Come on Home

[Verse 1]
Come on home, there's a hole the size of ancient Rome
Come on back, you're giving me a heart attack
We are young, running through the fields of life
Playing all the games that people play when you see them in the films from yesterday

[Chorus 1]
Give a chance to the old
Set the record straight for the welfare state
Give a chance to the young
Everyone deserves a life in the sun

[Verse 2]
Twenty years, I know that's when my love appeared
Twenty turns we took together 'round the sun
We are old, trekking in the fields of snow
Follow in my footsteps, noble page, never fear from time or cold or age

[Chorus 1]
Give a chance to the old
Set the record straight for the welfare state
Give a chance to the young
Everyone deserves a life in the sun

[Bridge 1]
I don't care if it's cold outside
'Cause my baby keeps me warm
And I don't care what my boss is saying
'Cause I left my mind at home
I know you worry 'bout the way we live
The things we could have done
But if you're loving other people close
You will never be alone

[Bridge 2]
Ba ba ba da, ba ba ba da
Ba ba ba da, ba ba ba da
I watch and I wait
I know that we'll never be together in that way
Doesn't stop me wishing, doesn't stop me praying
Doesn't stop me wishing, doesn't stop me praying

[Verse 3]
Come on home, there is room beside me on the throne
We are king and queen of might've been, heirs apparent to the scene
Come on back, we are racing the eternal track
Step for step and toe to toe, I will take your arm and off we go

[Chorus 2]
We will try to be true
Often time corrupts what you thought you knew
We will try to be fair
If you hide your love it will wither and fade

[Chorus 1]
Give a chance to the old
Set the record straight for the welfare state
Give a chance to the young
Everyone deserves a life in the sun
