Lyrics

I've been gone for so long, and how I've missed you My heart was aching for home And then one night as I lay down, somewhere far from you I dreamt that I heard you call my name, but my mind was playing games I knew right then that I'd returned to where I was before And I was so tired of being away that I just couldn't stay any more What did I ever come here for? Oh, no, no, no, no, no What did I ever come here for? I thought if I showed up in the night in my best disguise There is a doorway and your porch light that you would look into my eyes And you would realise who I am, put your arms around me You're gonna love me so much more than you ever did before What did I ever come here for? Oh, no, no, no, no, no What did I ever come here for? It wasn't too long before I showed up at your door I'd been gone a thousand miles I didn't know how much more I could stand, if I could stand at all You said I looked like I'd been through world war two And my soul was worn right through I thought you would read my mind I thought you'd ask me to stay You'd never turned me away like before But you closed the door anyway What did I ever come here for? Oh, no, no, no, no, no What did I ever come here for? Oh, no, no, no, no, no What did I ever come here for? Oh, no, no, no, no, no What did I ever come here for?
