Coming Home

You’re coming home today, my heart rejoice 
To hear that baron tone and luscious voice 
You’ll coming walking through that door 
I’ll come flying, your bags drop to the floor 
You’ll wrap your arms around my waist 
Your lips will stick to mine like sticky paste 
They’ll reminisce on the times we lost 
 And repay through hours, an unlimited cost 

As I laid upon my moonlight bed 
And skimmed through books I already read
Spread my arms across the white cotton sheets 
A space as far as when the two Pacific’s meets
On the end side table, delphiniums placed in a glass 
Ready for your sunshine, an awaiting storm to pass 
Rainy clouds creeps, an unwelcome invitation 
Boy, let me into that imagination 

Barely can my lips speak your name 
And for you are the only one to blame 
When you’re gone, an everlasting dusk 
The thought of you, provides a permanent lust 
And this spell of love’s despair 
Ripped apart it would compare 
But the end is near of this tragic play
For you my love, are coming home today
