Come Back To Me - Big Country

The day they had a party

Right out in the street

Flags and flowers and singing

For the homecome hero’s treat

I sat in the kitchen

Without a fire on the range

I knew this house had lost the cause

To ever make me warm again

Come back to me

Days are all too long

Come back to me

You never should have gone

I was so young and full of pride

And you were wild and strong

I never knew how weak I was

I watched them gather round him

When he stepped down from the car

While tears fell on my cigarette

He handed out cigars

I have your child inside me

But you will never know

I never will forget you

While I watch that child grow

Come back to me

Days are all to long

Come back to me

You never should have gone

I was so young and full of pride

And you were wild and strong

I never knew how weak I was

I was so young and full of pride

(I never, I never, I never…)

I will always be here

Fading by the day

I will wash the bloody hands

And cast the bowl away

As the years hang on me

You will always be young

And one day I will lie down

Where the rose was flung

Come back to me

Days are all to long

Come back to me

You never should have gone

I was so young and full of pride

And you were wild and strong

I never knew how weak I was
