We're living in a cold cruel city in a cold cruel world
That's the way it's been and probably will always be
It ain't a very nice place for a sensitive boy or girl
It ain't a very nice place for you and me
It's so easy can't you see
One thing missing that you need
Someone to come home to
I will be waiting there
Someone to come home to
I am the one who cares
We come into the world alone and we go out the same way
It's a cryin' shame if you do it in between
You gotta drive twenty miles, then you know that it's hard to stay
You go home and feed your cat and check your machine
Come on, baby, pack your bag
This living alone is such a drag
Someone to come home to
I will be waiting there
Someone to come home to
I am the one who cares
Someone to come home to
I will be waiting there
Someone to come home to
I am the one who cares
Let's go into the water
The water is cold
But not as cold a the air
There's a lot of strange things happening everywhere
But over at my place there's always a sane face
Someone to come home to
Someone to come home to
I will be waiting there
Someone to come home to
I am the one who cares
Someone to come home to
Someone to come home to
Someone to come home to
