I''ve been gone for so long And how I missed you My heart was aching for home And then one night as I laid down Somewhere far from you I dreamt that I heard you call my name But my mind was playing games
I knew right then that I''d return To where I was before That I was so tired of being away That I just couldn''t stay anymore What did I ever come here for?
Oh no no no no no What did I ever come here for?
I thought if I showed up in the night In my best disguise There at your doorway in your porch light That you would look into my eyes And you would realize who I am Put your arms around me You''re gonna love me so much more Than you ever did before What did I ever come here for?
Oh no no no no no What did I ever come here for?
It wasn''t too long before I showed up at your door I had been gone a thousand miles I didn''t know how much more I could stand If I could stand at all You said I looked like I''d been through World War II And my soul was worn right through I thought you would read my mind I thought you''d ask me to stay You''d never turn me away like before But you closed your door anyway What did I ever come here for?
Oh no no no no no What did I ever come here for? Oh no no no no no What did I ever come here for? Oh no no no no no What did I ever come here for?
