Basically nothin' has changed
|
She explained
|
We're so happy you're home again
|
You take the winter
|
To get back on your feet
|
Your bed is bein' made
|
And your father washed the sheets for you
|
|
So we talked a while
|
About all my woes
|
Their smiles worse than I told you so's
|
When she said to wash up and get to bed
|
I knew the freedom I had learned
|
I'd learn quickly to forget
|
|
And nobody understands
|
And nobody seems to care
|
'Bout the compromise of a man
|
Comin' home after five long years
|
Givin' up after five long years
|
|
Unpacked my bags in the livin' room
|
Smell the last of a sweet perfume
|
Came from the girl that went with the world that I traded in today
|
Just to live a safer way
|
|
And nobody understands
|
And nobody seems to care
|
'Bout the compromise of a man
|
Comin' home after five long years
|
Givin' up after five long years
|
|
She says you're always welcome here
|
You'll never be alone
|
Perhaps that's now my greatest fear
|
I'll always call this home
|
This home
|
