When I Come Back Home

You know I had to leave
You know my work couldn't wait
You know it's both what we need
And was becoming too late
Yeah It's only been 2 weeks
And still, I'm missing my date
But this a story to keep
That's why I got on that plane
Yeah we've been through the tears
Never let go of your hand
And when it's been 2 more years
I will be back where you stand
I'll brush the hair past your ears
And I will always be your man
Finish my work out here
I hope you're there when I land
Before we get to our story, girl I got to finish mine
In the same journal, same time, wrote every night
In my Carolina high I'll never forget those eyes
Now I'm almost back and we got more stories to write

When I come back home
I know where I'll go
When I come back home
Yeah when I come back home
When I come back home
That one I'll call my own
When I come back home
When I come back home

Always got that picture of my girl in my wallet
I pull it out when I'm lost
When I've fallen of my track
And the thought of you is what can really help me back on it
I remember what I want
I remember where I'm at
I remember all the thoughts that would make me wanna back down
Pulled our future to the front, they faded to the background
You help me when I struggle calm me in the times I act out
Hope I made you mad proud, I'll give you all I have now
Now before our story, girl you gotta finish yours
In the same journal, same time, wrote every night
In my Carolina high I'll never forget those eyes
Now I'm almost back and we got more stories to write

When I come back home
I know where I'll go
When I come back home
Yeah when I come back home
When I come back home
That one I'll call my own
When I come back home
When I come back home
