Do you wish you hadn't stayed all night? Do you wish you hadn't gotten so high? Do you wish you hadn't come? Oh no, gotta go Do you wish you wasn't half past gone? Do you wish you didn't last that long? Do you wish you hadn't come? Oh no, gotta go, gotta run May I remind you, May I remind that you've got nowhere to go, So I'm standing beside you, Standing beside you 'til you find our way back home We're coming home, We're coming home, Light a fire We're coming home. We'll write it down, We'll write it all down And we're dancing on the finest line, Between the chance of the time of our lives, Wishing you were done, oh no, gotta run And we're choosing not to make that choice, And we lose our shoes and voice, But we have a lot of fun on the way, wanna play? Gotta come! May I remind you, May I remind that you've got no where to go, So I'm standing beside you, I'm standing beside you 'til you find our way back home We're coming home, We're coming home, Light a fire We're coming home. We'll write it down, We'll write it all down We're coming home, We're coming home, Light a fire We're coming home. We'll write it down, We'll write it all down Then it all comes flooding back to me, Like a forgotten melody from a dream Then it all comes flooding back to me, Like a forgotten melody from a dream Then it all comes flooding back to me, Like a forgotten melody We're coming home, We're coming home, Light a fire We're coming home. We'll write it down, We'll write it all down We're coming home, We're coming home, Light a fire We're coming home. We'll write it down, We'll write it all down
