Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hallelujah, yes
Hallelujah, baby
All I can say is, glad you're coming, baby
Yeah
[Verse 2]
When I heard the news today
You'll be coming home soon
Wasted no time gettin' ready for this big comedown, yes
No, I just want to make sure it's true
I'm doing things I never usually do, no
Don't want to be laughed at, no
Or feel like a fool
[Verse 3]
People see me shopping in places
They say there is that's not you
See them guessing and staring
And really they don't have a clue
No, they don't know I'm try to repair
Damage that's set into way
There better be some truth to this news
'Cause I'm the happiest man today
[Verse 4]
When I gaze into the ceiling
It's such an off-key feeling
I want to hold you, hold you till it hurts, yes
When I hear sweet love songs
I know where these arms belong
They want to hold you, hold you till it hurts, yes
[Verse 5]
Whoa, I thought it woulda happened someday
You'd come back my way
Now all I can do is say
Oh, my, oh, yeah, my, my, my
And while I'm waiting here
And the hours are counting down
I'll put a favorite song on replay and
Leave and let it run
[Verse 6]
When I gaze into the ceiling
It's such an off-key feeling
I want to hold you, hold you till it hurts, yes
When I see you lovers in the park
I hear rub-a-dub breathing in the dark
I want to hold you, hold you till it hurts, yes
[Verse 7]
Come along, come along, come, baby, soon
I been waiting for you to return
No gossip gon' be taking place
But I'm ready to face, I'ma give it my best, yes
[Verse 8]
Oh, I thought it woulda happened someday
You come back my way
Now all I can do is say
Oh, my, oh, yeah, my, my, my
And while I'm waiting here
And the hours are counting down
I'll put a favorite song on replay and
Leave and let it run
[Verse 9]
When I heard the news today
You'll be coming home soon
Wasted no time gettin' ready for this big comedown, yes, yes
And I just want to make sure it's true
'Cause I'm doing things I never usually do, no
Don't want to be laughed at, no
Feel like a fool, yes, yes
[Verse 10]
Come, a come, a come, a come, baby, yes
Come, a come, a come, baby, no
Come let me hold you, hold you till it hurts, yes
Come along, come, baby
Oh, Harry, come, baby
Please, please let me hold you, hold you till it hurts
[Verse 11]
Please
Let me hold you, hold you till it hurts
