Coming Home
You've just been gone a dozen days
And I've not been to sleep
The bed is just not comfortable
Without you there to keep
I've taken your old Harley shirt
And I keep it by my head
The scent of you still lingers there
Since I can't have you instead
I miss the presence of your spirit
And it's something I won't find
I lie here with my memories
Of your smile in my mind
The house it seems much smaller
In the time that you've been gone
It's just that you are missing
That's the only thing that's wrong
I know you're coming back to me
And until I see you once more
I'll be sleeping with your t-shirt here
Until you burst on through that door
I've taken your old Harley shirt
And I keep it by my head
The scent of you still lingers there
Since I can't have you instead
It's been six months since you went away
And you'll be home today
You don't know how my heart misses you
There's no words for me to say
I love you more than you could know
I see the sunshine in your eyes
But when you're gone, I'm not the same
I'm still me, but in disguise
You can have back your old Harley shirt
That I've slept with by my head
Because tonight you're home and here with me
And we can both now share our bed
