[00:23.000]My first day of recess
[00:26.000]They all laughed at me
[00:30.000]When I fell off the swing set and scraped up my knee
[00:37.000]The nurse called my Momma to say I'd be late
[00:44.000]And when she gave me the phone I could hear Momma say
[00:51.000]I'm so sorry, son
[00:55.000]Oh I think you're so brave
[00:58.000]And she was smiling when she said
[01:05.000]When you come home
[01:08.000]No matter how far
[01:11.000]Run through the door and into my arms
[01:18.000]It's where you are loved
[01:21.000]It's where you belong
[01:25.000]And I will be here
[01:32.000]When you come home
[01:42.000]I waved good-bye through the window
[01:46.000]As I boarded the plane
[01:50.000]My first job in Houston was waiting for me
[01:56.000]I found a letter from Momma
[02:01.000]Tucked in my coat
[02:04.000]And as I flew down the runway I smiled when she wrote
[02:10.000]I miss you son
[02:14.000]You'll be so far away
[02:18.000]But I'll be waiting for the day
[02:24.000]When you come home
[02:27.000]No matter how far
[02:30.000]Run through the door and into my arms
[02:37.000]It's where you are loved
[02:41.000]It's where you belong
[02:45.000]And I will be here
[02:52.000]When you come home
[03:01.000]Well I don't think she can hear you now
[03:05.000]The doctor told me
[03:09.000]Your mother is fading
[03:12.000]It's best that you leave
[03:16.000]So I whispered I love you
[03:20.000]And then turned away
[03:23.000]But I stopped at the door when I heard Momma say
[03:30.000]I love you son
[03:33.000]But they're callin' me away
[03:38.000]Promise me before I go
[03:49.000]When you come home
[03:52.000]No matter how far
[03:56.000]Run through the door and into my arms
[04:02.000]It's where you are loved
[04:07.000]It's where you belong
[04:10.000]And I will be here
[04:17.000]When you come home
[04:24.000]When you come home
