CANDLEBOX – Come Home

I watch you fade away
your strength in long echos
its hard to see you through these days
I just want you to know
All memories get lost
we sit and wade through thru fears
I can’t remember to forget you
I watch you disappear

Oh my eyes are so sad
And I will always try to remember what you said
and I have always wanted you to be proud of
all the things I said and all I’ve done
And oh, my heart’s so barren
come home to me now

I dreamed of you last night
we’re sitting in the sand
an ocean’s rushing in
we sat there holding hands
the water wrapped itself around
warmly rising over head
the graceful sunset swimming
swirling through our heads

Oh, my eyes are so sad
I will always try to remember what you said
and I have always wanted you to be proud of
all the things I’ve said and all I’ve done
and oh, my heart’s so barren
come home to me now

I sat along your bedside light
for hours after you had gone
my head a mess of happiness
all colored in crayon
it’s hard to say goodbye
so hard, so hard I’m sure you know
you were grace when I was stumbling
you were the strength when I let go

And every song I sung with you
the darkest to the brightest tunes
will keep you in my heart heart of hearts
as pains they come but soon depart
and oh, my eyes are so sad
oh, my eyes are so said
come home to me now

I watch you fade away
your strength in long echos
