  • Somewhere deep inside
    Something's got a hold on you
    And it's pushing me aside
    See it stretch on forever

    I know I'm right
    For the first time in my life
    That's why I tell you
    You'd better be home soon

    Stripping back the coats
    Of lies and deception
    Back to nothingness
    Like a week in the desert

    I know I'm right
    For the first time in my life
    That's why I tell you
    You'd better be home soon

    So don't say no
    Don't say nothing's wrong
    Cause when you get back home
    Maybe I'll be gone

    It would cause me pain
    If we were to end it
    But I could start again
    You can depend on it

    I know I'm right
    For the first time in my life
    That's why I tell you
    You'd better be home soon
    That's why I tell you
    You'd better be home soon Writer/s: Neil Mullane Finn
