I'm not much for making little wishes
|
But I'd like a little wish to come true for you
|
I'm not talking about loaves and fishes
|
But I wish that there was something I could do for you
|
Here's a little bit of cheap advice
|
To be taken in an hour of need
|
Don't assume that the life you left
|
Is the life you have to lead
|
|
(Chorus)
|
When you come home what you gonna do
|
Oh brother, oh brother
|
Don't you try to deny
|
What you know to be true
|
The same mess of misery that you done been through
|
Standing in line
|
And it's waiting for you
|
One kiss leads to another
|
Brother when you come back home
|
|
I'd like to know who's knocking on door
|
I'd like to know what they come here for
|
You'd like to say no
|
But the words won't come
|
Come in and sit down, seem to roll off your tongue
|
You forget to remember, to never die young
|
One kiss leads to another
|
Brother when you come back home
|
Standing in line, all of your friends
|
Standing in line, party never ends
|
Standing in line, the river flows, the river bends
|
Standing in line, all of your friends
|
|
- Chorus -
|
|
And that moon will be
|
Shining in the trees
|
All night long
|
Something bound to happen for sure
|
Soon you'll be
|
Stopping by talking to a friend again
|
Swear you ain't never tasted nothing so pure
|
|
- Chorus -
|
|
When you come home, your friends are dropping by
|
When you come home, the moon is gonna shine
|
When you come home, I tell you no lie
|
When you come home, they're gonna offer you a line
|
Standing in line, all of your friends
|
Standing in line, party never ends now
|
Standing in line, the river flows, the river bends
|
Standing in line, all your so called friends
|
Standing in line, when you come home
|
Standing in line, oh brother, oh brother now
|
Standing in line, when you come home
|
Standing in line, what you're gonna do now
|
Standing in line...
|
