Verse 1: Haven't seen you 'round here for awhile I mentioned your name and I saw him smile Sittin' on the front porch waiting Sittin' on the front porch waiting Every little one to him belongs You might be weak but he is strong Sittin' on the front porch waiting Sittin' on the front porch waiting Chorus: So come on home, come on home Though you left, He couldn't forget Just just come on home Verse 2: Love and pain you've known to well
Been backed right down to the gates of hell Sittin' on the front porch waiting Sittin' on the front porch waiting But mercy's reach is within your grasp You'll find it where you found it last Sittin' on the front porch waiting Sittin' on the front porch waiting Bridge: Can you see his eyes, they search for you Can you feel his cries, they long for you They long for you, They long for you
