Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Somewhere deep inside
Something's got a hold on you
And it's pushing me aside
See it stretch on forever
[Chorus]
And I know I'm right
For the first time in my life
That's why I'll tell you
You'd better be home soon
[Verse 2]
Stripping back the coats
Of lies and deception
Back to nothingness
Like a week in the desert
[Chorus]
And I know I'm right
For the first time in my life
That's why I'll tell you
You'd better be home soon
[Bridge]
So don't say no
Don't say nothing's wrong
'Cause when you get back home
Maybe I'll be gone, oh
[Bridge]
The lights go out
[Verse 3]
It would cause me pain
If we were to end it
But I could start again
You can depend on it
[Chorus]
And I know I'm right
For the first time in my life
Well, that's why I'll tell you
You'd better be home soon, oh
[Outro]
That's why I'll tell you
You'd better be home soon
