Hello world, hope you're listening
Forgive me if I'm young, speaking out of turn
There's someone I've been missing
I think that they could be the better half of me
They're in their own place trying to make it right
But I'm tired of justifying so I say to you

Come home, come home
'Cause I've been waiting for you for so long
So long and right now there's a war between the vanities
But all I see is you and me and the fight for you is all I've ever known
Ever known so come home, home, home

I get lost in the beauty of everything I see
The world ain't half as bad as they paint it to be
If all the sons, if all the daughters stopped to take it in
Well, hopefully, the hate subsides and the love can begin
It might start now yeah
Well maybe I'm just dreaming out loud and until then

Come home, come home
'Cause I've been waiting for you for so long
So long and right now there's a war between the vanities
But all I see is you and me and the fight for you is all I've ever known
Ever known so come home, home, home

Everything I can't be is everything you should be and that's why I need you here
Everything I can't be (everything I can't be)
Is everything you should be (is everything you should be)
That's why I need you here so hear this now

Come home, come home
'Cause I've been waiting for you for so long
So long and right now there's a war between the vanities
But all I see is you and me and the fight for you is all I've ever known
Ever known so come home, home, home
Come home, come home
I've been waiting for you
Come home, come home, come home
