When You Come Home

On a red-eye flight to London Everything you need to own Is on your back and you're smiling Because you're gone You'd better not look behind you Or you might just turn to stone Keep your eyes on the horizon And where you're going And I know you'll find Just what you're looking for When you come back home Stay up all night To hear your stories and your songs When you come back home There'll be open arms Waiting when you come home Go and show them why we love you Send a postcard now and then I'll picture me beside you We'll take it all in And when you get up on that mountain Sing a song up there for me Let them hear you in the heavens Singing baby I'm free And I know you'll find Just what you're looking for When you come back home Stay up all night To hear your stories and your songs When you come back home There'll be open arms Waiting when you come home There'll be open arms Waiting when you come home Find yourself in a stranger's eyes In a red sunset Or in a kiss goodbye Find yourself on that open road And when your feet get tired You know just where to go When you come back home Stay up all night Just to listen to your songs When you come back home There'll be open arms Waiting when you come home There'll be open arms Waiting when you come home There'll be open arms waiting Come home
