A Song to Come Home To lyrics

Midnight falls over me, coming down like water
Midnight falls over me, coming down like water

Throwing these ashes out to the sea
And it's taken so long
Breaking these bones, breaking these bones
Won't grow old
It only hurts when you're gone

If you look for me, I'm never at home
If I ever call, you're never alone

And if there's nothing left for me to do
I'll write a song for you to come home to
Don't dig my grave 'till I'm gone
They may be words you've heard me say before
But this time I hope they mean more
In a song

Midnight falls over me
I see the moon in your eyes
Just be here, just breathe
Just stay to see the sunrise

You may turn away, but I understand
Though we never touch, I'm holding your hand

And if there's nothing left for me to do
I'll write a song for you to come home to
Don't dig my grave 'till I'm gone
They may be words you've heard me say before
But this time I hope they mean more
In a song

So what good are the tears for?
Will they bring you back to my door?
What good are the tears for
When you're half a world away?
This isn't what I left for
I can't feel my heartbeat in me
So what good are the tears for
When you're lonely?

And if there's nothing left for me to do
You're like a song for me to come home to
Don't dig my grave 'till I'm gone
But there are many men who've come before
I wanna let you know you've meant more
In a song

And if there's nothing left for me to do
I'll write a song for you to come home to
Don't dig my grave 'till I'm gone
They may be words you've heard me say before
But this time I hope they mean more
In a song
