Yeah you cooked his dinners
|
You raised his children
|
Still he's not satisfied
|
He says "I'd rather switch with you
|
You don't know how hard it is
|
To work from 9 to 5"
|
|
But he speaks with his eyes closed
|
And even though you're not all alone
|
He's never there to be with you
|
And you remember when you were young
|
When life was new and it was fun
|
Now every corner's filled with dust
|
|
But you're not coming home tonight
|
|
You just took the train
|
And you left without a wave
|
Figured he'd never let you leave anyway
|
And now you're sitting on that train
|
Seeing life in a new way
|
And every forest sings a song
|
|
One for the heartbroken lovers
|
And one for the dreamers
|
And then there's one just for you
|
The winds been humming on it all day
|
Ans the soil lies awake
|
Waiting for it's drum solo
|
|
'Cause you're not coming home tonight
|
|
The ship is sailing
|
I'll meet you on the other side
|
The future's unclear
|
But hopefully it will be fine
|
|
You're not coming home tonight
|
