I looked out across the field At the sundown gold Don't feel so young anymore But sure don't feel old And I remember you as a child Running 'round free You would play through the day into nighttime Till you could not see CHORUS: Come home - come home Night is falling but the lights are on Come home - come home Night is falling and it won't be long I'll turn my head And you'll be grown I stood in the dark by the window Lookin' for your lights I sleep better knowing everybody's home And everybody's alright Just one of those things that happen When you care so much And you pray to keep from worryin' Then you worry you ain't prayin' enough CHORUS: Come home - come home Night is falling but the lights are on Come home - come home Night is falling and it won't be long I'll turn my head, yeah And look around And you'll be grown We are all just children - even your momma and me And everybody gone before us From this family And God, the good, good Father watches Those He call His own And one day when we're through growin' He's gonna call us home and he'll say Come home - come home Night is falling but the lights goes on Come home - come home Night had fallin and it's been so long Since we've been together Gonna be here forever Come home, come on home.
