Time to Go Home – Lyrics
a minor bpm 123
when i reached for your hand
you pulled away with a start
making pleasant small talk
but i know your heart
its not the end of the story
well i’ve been making room for your new friend
know i shouldn’t say it again
but you’re coming home in the morning
at 4am
all i ever wanted was to see you smile
and we will always roam
just wanted to hold you closer
now i just want to go home
i just want to go home
i’ve given all i can give now
and it’s more than enough
never a good time to let go
but i’m losing our touch
oh i know when it’s over
but i can never back down
know i’ll let go on my last breath
or maybe it’s time to go down
all i ever wanted was to see you smile
we will always roam
wanted to hold you closer
now i just want to go home
i want to go home
all i wanted was your happiness
but i was not alone
now i’m left standing in silence
maybe its time to go home
all i ever wanted was to see you smile
we will always roam
wanted to hold you closer
now i just want to go home
