Welcome Home

Won't you walk me outside tonight
Beneath the glow of the old tyre light
& in the fog the air is wet
With your eyes as big as silver dollars
& I'll hunt you laying down to bet
& the gamble makes you scream & holler

Welcome home
I'm coming home
Welcome home

You led me down a sea of dreams
I was lost in love's smoke screens
With my stomach in cartwheels
Like a child who's scared to peek
At the top of the ferris wheel
I'll make love to you till the middle of next week

Welcome home
I'm coming home
Welcome home

I get worried for my state of mind
I get worried when I sign the dotted line
I guess they say that you reap what you sow
Well if love's the crop then I'm your farmer
But I'm scared of being what I know
& I'll kiss you under the spell of the snake charmer

Welcome home
I'm coming home
Welcome home
I'm coming home
Welcome home
