I Came Home

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I came home with the morning on my coat A little wild, a little breathless in my throat You were waiting by the kitchen, smiling wide With that knowing look you never try to hide I told you every detail, every spark How a stranger made a fire in the dark You just laughed and pulled me close against your chest Said, “Baby, now come home and give me the rest” [Pre-Chorus] You let me wander, you let me fly But you know where I belong when the night goes by [Chorus] He was a perfect stranger, sweet for one night But you’re the one who makes me feel right I had my little secret, now I’m back at your door Ready for the love I’ve been waiting for You can reclaim me, baby, take your time Put your name back on this heart of mine The world can have a moment, but I know the score I come running to the man I adore [Verse 2] There was laughter in a room I’d never seen A flash of velvet and a touch of gasoline For a while I was a story with no past Just a spark in someone else’s looking glass But the thrill began to fade before the dawn And I knew which pair of arms I’d count upon Now the champagne’s on ice, the curtains sway And I’m ready for the game we love to play [Pre-Chorus] You let me wander, you let me fly But you know where I belong when the night goes by [Chorus] He was a perfect stranger, sweet for one night But you’re the one who makes me feel right I had my little secret, now I’m back at your door Ready for the love I’ve been waiting for You can reclaim me, baby, take your time Put your name back on this heart of mine The world can have a moment, but I know the score I come running to the man I adore [Bridge] No shame, no sorrow, no alibi Just a little adventure beneath a borrowed sky And when I say your name, every doubt disappears You’re the only one I want when the music clears [Final Chorus] He was a perfect stranger, sweet for one night But you’re the one who makes me feel right I had my little secret, now I’m back at your door Ready for the love I’ve been waiting for You can reclaim me, baby, take your time Put your name back on this heart of mine I tasted the freedom, now I’m yours once more Come and claim the heart that you were made for [Outro] I came home, I came home To the love that I have always known I came home, I came home And I’m yours when the morning comes
