Come On Home

If we sit here in silence the rain will never come

This bone dry desert land it beats us like a drum

And these unspoken words

Are swimming in our bellies drowning love

Won't you come on home my love

Won't you come on home

You used to wake me gently softly calling out my name

The simple bed we'd lie on held our hearts up with its

frame

Weeds out on the front porch

Dying leaves down in the basement drain

Won't you come on home my love

Won't you come on home

We're looking down on silent streets for roses in the

dirt

We'll kick this like a dead horse but it only makes it

worse

We're hitchhiking for a ride one at a time

You know damn well I'm going first

Won't you come on home my love

Won't you come on home

If we sit here in silence the rain would never come

This bone dry desert land beats us like a drum

And these unspoken words

Are swimming in our bellies drowning love
