Back Home To You

When I left, it was starting to rain
She was still fast asleep
A dream and a song away
I got on the plane to L.A.

I know it's heartbreaking
The time that I'm taking
The tears that you're crying
I know that you're dying

' Cause I'm going away
And you know I can't take you with me
And time ain't gonna stop today
But I hope that you're waiting for me
When I get back home, back home to you

I fall to my knees and pray
This world ain't gonna get down on me
I feel like I'm so far away
But I smile as I turn the page

My heart is falling
But my dream keeps calling

The life that I'm living is so unforgiving

' Cause I'm going away
And you know I can't take you with me
And time ain't gonna stop today
But I hope that you're waiting for me
When I get back home, back home to you

I've been away for so long
But I'll never do you wrong
' Cause baby, I'm coming home

The tears that you're crying
I know that you're dying

' Cause I'm going away
And you know I can't take you with me
And time ain't gonna stop today
But I hope that you're waiting for me

' Cause I'm going away
And you know I can't take you with me
And time ain't gonna stop today
But I hope that you're waiting for me
When I get back home, back home to you
