Capo 1 [VERSE 1] / When I left it was starting to rain She was still fast asleep / A dream and a song away I got on the plane to L.A. I know it's heartbreaking The time that I'm taking The tears that you're crying I know that you're dying [CHORUS] Cause I'm going away And you know I can't take you with me And time ain't gonna stop today But I hope that you're waiting for me When I get back home Back home to you [VERSE 2] / I fall to my knees and pray This world ain't gonna get down on me / I feel like I'm so far away But I smile as I turn the page My heart is falling but my dream keeps calling The life that I'm living Is so unforgiving (Chorus) [BRIDGE] I've been away for so long But I'll never do you wrong --- x 2 Cause baby I'm coming home (Chorus)
