Shadows play their tricks at night The man almost seems alive When in fact he is a decaying corpse He had a heart attack and he died Waiting near his deathbed Waits his lonely gold retriever Wondering why her master Suddenly left her on her own The sun shines through the window On the dust that's settled smooth The wind will bang a shutter But the dog's too weak to move Even hunger pains receding Ribs bite through brittle skin She's dying by the doorway Sure that no one will come in No one's ever coming home (No one) No one's ever coming home (No one) No one's ever coming home (No one) No one's ever coming home As Spring coaxed nature into life The icy winter died Bird's sang on top of telephone wires While little Tommy cried He had gone to visit Granddad But only found him sort of home He lay next to his gold retriever Clothes Dust and Bone No one's ever coming home (No one) No one's ever coming home (No one) No one's ever coming home (No one) No one's ever coming home
