When I first met you you were just a little too young for me
But you stuck it out through my darkest time and you gave me a reason to believe
Things just haven't been the same since you had enough of me
I feel like I'm only half a man and it ain't the half I want to be
Won't you come home, my baby?
Won't you come home, my baby?
Won't you come home? And maybe, baby, you'll see
That things can turn out the way that you thought they'd be
Every morning I wake up to find an empty bed
There's a box that sits in the corner where I gathered up all of your things
I know that I've got my walls, my darling, and you're not the first to say
That breaking through can be difficult but I promise that you're on your way
Won't you come home, my baby?
Won't you come home, my baby?
Won't you come home? And maybe, baby, you'll see
That things can turn out the way that you thought they'd be
I know you made a tough decision and it's hard to turn back now
But life is short. You only get one chance. And I hope that you will somehow
You know I'd never ask you something that I wouldn't give in return
So try it out, give it a shot and I promise that you won't get burned
Won't you come home, my baby?
Won't you come home, my baby?
Won't you come home? And maybe, baby, you'll see
Won't you come home, my baby?
Won't you come home, my baby?
Won't you come home? And maybe, baby, you'll see
That things can turn out the way that you thought they'd be
