Chris Rice Home Tonight Lyrics

Home Tonight Lyrics

I’ve come to my senses
How did I get so far from home
The lies
dissipating
Revealing I’m so alone
And I remember now how strong
love can be
And I wonder how did I ever leave

Burn your fire on the
altar
Leave a candle on the porch
I’m still too far away to see
it
But I’m aching for its warmth
And I’m so tired and cold
and dark and lonesome
But still I hear your song inside
So sing it louder
if you want me home tonight
Sing it loud now, ‘cause I’m
comin’ home tonight

This isn’t the first
time
I’ve wandered away from home before
You’d have every
reason
To slam and dead-bolt the door
But I remember now how strong your
love can be
And I wonder how you might welcome me

Burn your fire on
the altar
Leave a candle on the porch
I’m still too far away to
see it
But I’m aching for its warmth
And I’m so tired and
cold and dark and lonesome
But still I hear your song inside
So sing it
louder if you want me home tonight
Sing it loud now, ‘cause I’m
comin’ home tonight

Into your arms, to my back yard
Where I
used to play
How I miss the days...

So burn your fire on the
altar
Leave a candle on the porch
I’m still too far away to see
it
But I’m aching for its warmth
And I’m so tired and cold
and dark and lonesome
But still I hear your song inside
So sing it louder
if you want me home tonight
Sing it loud now, ‘cause I’m
comin’ home tonight
