When You Come Home

My heart is beating, the clock is ticking out your name
And I am keeping the light on for you
Another sunrise, but your room is just an empty place
I close my eyes, I see your face

And, in the silence, I can hear sweet echoes of your voice so clear
And, in my dreams, I hold you near when you come home

Whoa, when you come home I'm gonna run to you
Hold you to my heart the way I've wanted to
Sing and dance all night just like we used to do
When you come home

My heart is beating a million thoughts of love for you
And I am keeping a place for you
The rain reminds me of your tears I've saved in a bottle all these years
They'll all be diamonds for you here, when you come home

Whoa, when you come home I'll keep you here to stay
Follow my tears if you can't find the way
I'll look out where the highway meets the sky each day 'til you come home

You are the treasure of my heart, you are the longing of my soul
I'll be waiting here for you until the angels bring, bring you home
Bring you home, whoa

When you come home I'm gonna run to you
Hold you to my heart the way I've wanted to
Sing and dance all night just like we used to do
When you come home

When you come home I'll keep you here to stay
Follow my tears if you can't find the way
I'll look out where the highway meets the sky each day
'Til you come home
'Til you come home

Follow my tears
My tears
