she said, "it happens all the time
two people fall out on each other
its so hard to stay in line
we can't push this much farther"

she gave me a look and then she walked out the door
she left me standing here all alone
she said she wanted her life to be so much more
i wonder when she's coming home

so i sat here for hours waiting for her to phone
and to hear her crying and tell me she was wrong

she gave me a look and then she walked out the door
she left me standing here all alone
she said she wanted her life to be so much more
i wonder when she's coming home

well that was a long time ago
and i'm still waiting for her return
i heard the other day that she got married
i guess she'll never learn

i remember the look as she walked out the door
she left me standing here all alone
she said she wanted her life to be so much more
i wonder when my baby's coming home

when is she coming home?
is she coming back?
she's coming home
