It's been a while since I was seventeen again

And I was young in love whatnot

Something I knew much about, mm-hmm, yeah

But now I'm older, got myself thinking 'bout what is love and loss

When it's hard it gets a lot for me

And you called, and you called me yesterday, yeah, yeah

And I, heard you call, hear you callin' back to me, yeah, hey-hey

When you come home, when you come home

I'll tell you all my stories, we can face the sun

When you come home, when you come home

I'll be waitin' at your door, dear, ready to take you home

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ah, ah-ah, ooh-lay, lay, lay, lay, lay

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ah, ah-ah, ooh-lay, lay, lay, lay, lay

Yeah, yeah, ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm floatin' through the wind like I talk with leaves

I got up and got it, nobody told me, "Leave" (nobody told me, "Leave")

I took ignition with nobody permission

I had to risk it on a mission, tryna find a borderline ambition (ambition)

Got a wonderful voice but I always listen (listen)

I fly high in the sky got 20/20 vision

I spread my wings real wide and cut the wind

I climb to the clouds, makin' calls to all my friends

And you called, and you called me yesterday, yeah, yeah

And I, heard you call, hear you callin' back to me, yeah, hey-hey

When you come home (when you come home), when you come home (when you come home)

I'll tell you all my stories, we can face the sun (we can face the sun)

When you come home (when you come home), when you come home (when you come home)

I'll be waitin' at your door, dear (waitin' at your door)

Ready to take you home (ready to take you home)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ah, ah-ah, ooh-lay, lay, lay, lay, lay

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ah, ah-ah, ooh-lay, lay, lay, lay, lay

The early bird gets the worm, I eat both

The sun only seems to burn when I fly close

The humans only aim at me when I fly flow

The snakes only smile at me when they get hungry

I can build a bridge through the leaves, winter's comin'

I'm flyin' through the trees in the breeze, wings, humming

I don't have a single regrets since I left the nest

It's just a couple of twigs, it's just an empty head, right?
