Come Home lyrics

COME HOME (WONDER YEARS)
performed by: Debbie Gibson
written by : Deborah Gibson


Well that phone doesn`t ring when you want it to
And it isn`t your dream on the line
It`s just dad telling mom to have dinner without him
`Cause he won`t be coming home on time

Well there`s always that dance to escape to
But that doesn`t always work out
You don`t have a date; you`re not going alone
Isn`t it nice to know you can still come home?

Well you don`t have too many friends to speak of
But a best one is all that you need - oh
Growing up so strong but you`re not made of stone
Isn`t it nice to come home?

In the real world you`re not always welcome
And love`s not forgive and forget
It`s a cruel world without understanding
And little one it`s not over yet

Well you never can trust a strange
So he may as well give up his fight - oh
Your best friend`s waiting in the living room
So go on and kiss them good night
