I like it    I don't like it

Through the wind and the rain

I hear my mother's cry

She says "i know my baby's out there"

Just couldn't bear to ask her why

From my womb into the world

Lord i wish the child would call

You know i'm needing some company

She makes my life so full"

Take my advice

Go ahead and live your own life

But everybody's waiting

For someone to come home


Like the fire waits for the sand

This world is burning

With the tension of human hands

Waiting to be cleansed

Waiting for their ace of spades

They say "i sure hope he's coming

'cause i feel like i've just been saved"

Take my advice

Go ahead and live while you're alive

Everybody's waiting

For someone to come home


"come to me and cleanse my soul"

I'm free, i'm free

"only with you am i whole"

Can't you see that i am me

"i'll be waiting by the window"

I'll be heading for the door


I was driving down highway 85 yeah

Had to pull off the road

Just to hear my radio coming in clearer

Lord this life's so full i said

Why do we ask for more

While we're waiting for the man to come

We forgot what he's coming for

Won't take my advice

Go ahead and live while you're alive

Everybody's waiting

For someone to come home

"i'll be waiting by the window"

Everybody's waiting

For someone to come home

"i'll be waiting by the window"

Everybody's waiting

For someone to come home

Come home
