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