coming home

Nerina Pallot

My dad's not famous, but he is to me
'cause he says we're all special, all different, you see
And that's not words from some old book
Laying lonely on a shelf
That's a man who knows himself, he tells it like it is

I don't write and I don't call - it doesn't bother you at all
So I'm coming home, yes, I'm coming home
Please forgive what I don't say
You know I love you anyway
So I'm coming home, yes, I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Yeah, I'm coming home

'Cause I get tired of thinking 'bout things
I wasn't built for too much philosophising
And I feel lost sometimes, so small, I feel I'm hardly here at all
But that's a man who knows himself, he tells it like it is

I don't write and I don't call - it doesn't bother you at all
So I'm coming home, yes, I'm coming home
Please forgive what I don't say - you know I love you anyway
So I'm coming home, yes, I'm coming home

I'm all grown-up now, but I'm still your kid
And I will make you proud one day
But I know you'll love me anyway
So I'm coming home, yes, I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Yeah, I'm coming home
Oh, I'm coming home to you

I don't write and I don't call - it doesn't bother you at all
So I'm coming home, yes, I'm coming home
Please forgive what I don't say
You know I love you anyway
So I'm coming home, yes, I'm coming home

I'm all grown-up now, but I'm still your kid
And I will make you proud one day
But I know you'll love me anyway
So I'm coming home, yes, I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Yeah, I'm coming home
Oh, I'm coming home to you
