Hello, world
Hope you're listening
Forgive me if I'm young
For speaking out of turn

There's someone I've been missing
I think that they could be
The better half of me
They're in the wrong place trying to make it right
But I'm tired of justifying
So I say to you

Come home
Come home
'Cause I've been waiting for you
For so long
For so long

And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all I see is you and me
And the fight for you is all I've ever known
So come home
Ooh

I get lost in the beauty
Of everything I see
The world ain't half as bad
As they paint it to be
If all the sons
All the daughters
Stopped to take it in

Well, hopefully, the hate subsides and the love can begin
It might start now, yeah
Well maybe I'm just dreaming out loud
And until then

Come home
Come home
'Cause I've been waiting for you
For so long
For so long

And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all I see is you and me
And the fight for you is all I've ever known
Ever known
So come home
Ooh

Everything I can't be
Is everything you should be
And that's why I need you here
Everything I can't be
Is everything you should be
And that's why I need you here
So hear this now

Come home
Come home
'Cause I've been waiting for you
For so long
For so long

And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all I see is you and me
And the fight for you is all I've ever known
Ever known
So come home
Come home
