Verse 1: I've been gone for far too long Roaming through the city lights But my heart has been yearning For the place where I belong Now I'm on my way back home To the ones who know me best With open arms they'll welcome me and put my weary soul to restChorus: Coming home, oh what a feeling The road may be long, but it's worth the ride Coming home, my heart is healing In the arms of my family and friends by my side Verse 2: Memories flood my minds I pass by familiar streets The playground where we used to play The corner store where we'd meet The faces may have changed But the love remains the same And I know I'll always have a place Where I'll never feel ashamedChorus: Coming home, oh what a feeling The road may be long, but it's worth the ride Coming home, my heart is healing In the arms of my family and friends by my sideBridge: No matter where I goOr what life may bring My heart will always long For the comfort that home bringsChorus: Coming home, oh what a feeling The road may be long, but it's worth the ride Coming home, my heart is healing In the arms of my family and friends by my sideOutro: Coming home, coming home To the place where I belong Coming home, coming home To the ones who'll never steer me wrong.
